For HT you will need more power than you think. The dynamics of dialog vs. action sequences is much larger than normal music. You will listen at higher db than with stereo and will want to be able to crank up the volume to levels you would never think of for stereo unless your a real DEADHEAD.
Remember to double the dbs you need to quad the wpc.
I would suggest a minimum of 100 wpc to provide the headroom you will need. Used amp(s) are very attractive for HT as the technology has been essentially stagnant (in the amplifier only area) for years. I would not consider buying an older video product or receiver but I would buy a set of older amps.
