need to know if i need to add an amplifier or upgrade my integra dtr 7.3 avr for my speaker setup which consists of lsi 15 left and right; lsi center; velodyne sub; lxi 7s for rear and back surrounds. i believe lsi 15s were rated at 200 watts each @ 4 ohms and avr is rated 100 w/x7 channel @ 8ohms. does this seem to be correct? i am a novice in ht systems can any body help?

    You'll need an amp with some cajones to power all those speakers! :eek:

    Try posting in the electronics forum! :wink:
