You made a good choice with the Yammy AVR. Good sound quality and you likely won't have to bring it in for repairs, which is a major PITA. And at 6 Ohms your speakers are an easy load for the Yamaha, which, admittedly, doesn't have the most robust power supply. My biggest reservation on recommending them, and why I recommend stepping up to Anthem if at all possible.
I've narrowed it down but...
I've narrowed my choice for my first AVR to these, and I can still buy them new within my price range.
Yamaha RX-A740
Denon AVR-X2100
Marantz NR1605
They all have wi-fi and a reputation for good sound.
My front three speakers are 87db 6ohm speakers, and I may not use rears because of space in our townhome. I'm interested in having a center channel to hear dialogue more clearly, instead of an integrated amp because of my age. They all have more than enough features for me, including room correction, and sound quality is very important.
