Another tidbit of information is that the Denon receiver whilst rated at 120 wpc x 7 did not perform as stated. In the S&V review it put out a respectable 93 wpc into 7 channels but not 120 wpc. For 2 channel stereo it put out 139 wpc. The link is here:

If the link above does not work, go to soundandvisionmag.com and choose archives and then the july/august issue. The pdf file contains the relevant information.


hope that helps.
