Thank you for your responses. The receivers I'm most seriously considering are the Harmon Kardon AVR-525, NAD T752, Denon AVR-2803 or the Onkyo TX-SR701. I have 2 main concerns: 1. will the unit compliment the sound of the Spendor speakers, and 2. is there enough power to drive the inefficient Spendors?
Receiver for Spendor S3/5se
I just bought Spendor s3/5se mains and the Spendor SC3 center. I now need an A/V receiver that is an appropriate sonic match. The Spendors are not very efficient (84 db). The mains can handle 125W and the center 80w. I want to stay in the Denon, Harmon Kardon, NAD, Onkyo or Kenwood lines because I can get great prices. Thank you, PARE1
