Hello everyone,

This is my first post so do be kind...I own a Marantz SR7002 which powers a 5.1 surround system. My front and centers are Ascend Acoustics Sierra 1s, my surrounds are the Ascends CBM 170s, and my Sub. is the LFM-1 Plus. My wife loves the system and thought it might be even better with two additional speaker in the back. Are 7 speakers too much for this receiver? Any thoughts? I really want the 7500 but I'm sure my wife will ask questions! As a side note, the LFM-1 Plus is amazing. Thanks Outlaw!
