Receiver help


I'm helping a friend put together a modest system, just a receiver, speakers, and CD player.  She wants a receiver for FM so an integrated amp isn't considered.  Probably no more than 50 watts will be needed.  The speakers will be ELAC B5s.  It could be a stereo receiver or AV, but she would only utilize the front stereo pair outputs.

This is not an area I follow.  Based on general reputation I'm thinking of something from Yamaha, Onkyo, etc.  Specific model recommendations would help if you have experience with one.

Thanks

I haven't looked for a receiver recently but if I were, I would consider a component that supports WiFi streaming. This allows free access to pretty much any radio station that is out there and at a much higher quality than an FM antenna could ever provide. So basically instead of a "receiver " you'll be looking for an integrated amplifier which also supports WiFi streaming. Makes sense?
