I have 2 pairs of m70 and use them as fronts and rears. Have a cs2 and psw505. Any receiver that would work great with this setup? Im thinking the yamaha rx a3000, will this work without damaging my speakers?

    I have M60s for fronts with a CS2 and a Bic F12 sub with RC85i's as rears/fronts heights. My avr is a Denon 1611 and I love it. The only drawback is that it doesn't have pre-outs which I will eventually need once I upgrade to ML ESLs. What is your budget?

    Actually no, the Denon doesn't have preouts and the Yamaha the OP is looking at is head and shoulders above the Denon 1612.

    Thanks for the advices. Another question sorry im noob. I just bought another pair of M70's just for music and use it with my yamaha rx v671 2ch stereo. I was looking at the rx v671 manual and noticed that in back of the receiver has bi amping ports and follow the directions as given. I noticed a bit of difference but im worried i might harm my speakers since i haven't read a thread about this. Any help would be appreciated.
