Good or Bad: Rotel Receiver and B&W?


I am about to make a purchase to upgrade my current system to a surround one. These are what I have:

B&W Matrix 801
McIntosh MC206 Power Amp(older version)
McIntosh Preamp (won't be using this in the new system)

I have chosen the following for upgrade:

Rotel RSX-1056 75 x 5, 7.1 surround receiver
B&W Nautilus 805 (for back)
B&W Nautilus HTM-1 (center)
B&W ASW 800 for subwoofer

Will be using McIntosh PowerAmp to power the front two speakers.I would greatly appreciate your opinion! Good or bad match? Flaws? Mismatches? Me a fool?

More watts is always better than less watts. But the difference between 100 and 120 is trivial. If the McIntosh is sufficient to drive your fronts, the 1056 will be fine for the rest.
