    Welcome to Club Polk JLP. More power will always help to insure that your speakers will operate to their full potential. Unfortunately, your receiver does not have the necessary preouts to hook up an amp. You would have to upgrade that first. The Onkyo 709 series & up have them.

    Yes rti a5 should sound good running off that receiver... The a5 shouldn't be too hard to drive well
