I want to buy a receiver ($1000 budget) and I want a good match for the speakers! Need a good advice! Yamaha RXV2400; Denon 2803; Pionner VSAX5i (name in Europe I think is Elite 55).
Are these the B&W DM610i speakers? I have those, and I am also looking for a home theatre receiver that can use them as fronts at 4ohms while powering the other speakers at at least 8 ohms.
If they are 4 ohms I think none of the above are a very good choice. They are all designed for 6-8ohm loads, and with 4ohm speakers you might lose dynamics or end up with an overheated receiver. Probably not, but no reason to risk it.
At least the NAD T753 should do fine with 4 ohms, and it has amazing sound quality. H/K AVR430/630 are also good choices.
