... for rear surrounds? One of the dealers where I have been listening to speakers mentioned getting a good quality receiver. His point being that I really don't need 125W to the rear surrounds. With a receiver I may lose a bit of power to the fronts while driving all chanels, a decent quality (NAD T773 for instance) should provide ample power.

Now I am confused (which is nothing new).

Any advice, $.02, or opinions??
