Ok...here's another newbie question (begging forgiveness in advance!)
I've recently purchased a decent Onkyo 7.1 receiver with 85 watts per channel. It also has a second channel for a remote set of speakers.
If I'm trying to set up the whole thing (3 pairs plus one center plus one powered sub) and a separate pair of speakers on the second channel...do I need to calculate how much wattage goes to each speaker...to help determine what speakers I can run off the system?
Someone told me something about taking the watts per channel and dividing by speaker pairs...then what?
