Yamaha Aventage RX-A1020 Needs some speakers


CAn my YAmaha receiver power a pair of B&W CM9s??? IS it a good quality match or do the CM9s outpace the Yamaha????

Thanks for the help.

What will be your mix of home theater/music? If your top priority is two channel music quality, you might want to consider a used McCormack power amp, possibly a DNA 1. Rated at 150wpc into 8ohms, but delivers a lot of current. I believe is also good down to 2 ohms.

This one would be really sweet, but is modified and may be more than you want to spend:

Should you want more power for the center channel, you could always pick up an amp for that.
