My first post. I am in the process of upgrading my AV receiver, and was considering 3 receivers. My first choice was the Denon AVR 3805, then the HK AVR635, then the Denon avr 2805. I'm wondering if my speaker setup is going to limit me. I've got Paradigm Mini MK3 fronts, Paradigm CC150 center, a JBL PS60 sub and some non descript rears. The Paradigm's are rated at 80 watts max and the sub at 50 watts RMS. I dont want to over power and blow my speakers.
Either one of these receivers will probably be an overkill. I would upgrade my receiver first or else if you are going to upgrade your speakers at some point down the line then just take it easy with the volume for now.
You are right, your speakers will limit your choices...I've got the AVR 3805 and it pumps out around 100-110 Watts per channel, and the 2805 won't be much different.
