The latest technologies don't do you a whole lot of good if you are running two channel. Both the Denon and Onkyo are decent recivers, but in the same price range, I'd go for a Rotel RSX-972, maybe the Outlaw reciever or a Carver C-1000. I personally think both the Denon and Onkyo units you are looking at are a tad overrated, but I may be wrong. The build quality of the Rotel and Outlaw units are far better than the Denon or Onkyo, the Carver I don't have any personal knowledge of, but I've heard good things about it.
The QSC USA900 is not really a (for lack of a better term) "home audio nut" amp, it's ment more for DJ, stadium or club use, and as such, it does a good job. For serious home audio or HT use, it has way to much distortion. Here are the specs on the QSC USA-900 amp (your info of 240 was a tad off)..
Output Power (per channel):
Continuous Average Output Power Both Channels Driven:
8 ohms, 1kHz, 1% THD (typical): 125 watts
4 ohms, 1kHz, 1% THD (typical): 200 watts
2 ohms, 1kHz, 1% THD (typical): 250 watts
My thoughts anyway, I've been known to be wrong!
