Outlaw 2150
After reading through all of these threads, it is making me concerned that my outlaw 2150 is under powering my LSi25s. Is this just an idle worry? Am I just worried because I am always wanting an excuse to upgrade? I like to listen to all kinds of music, and I sometimes like to listen loud. Outlaw gets warm but never hot. Any thoughts? Ideas? Reassurances?

If it works for you and sounds fine great. Can your speakers sound even better with more power, absolutely. The good news is that the 2150 does have preouts for separate amplification whenever you decide you want to hear what your speakers are really capable of.Marantz AV-7705 PrePro, Classé 5 channel 200wpc Amp, Oppo 103 BluRay, Rotel RCD-1072 CDP, Sony XBR-49X800E TV, Polk S60 Main Speakers, Polk ES30 Center Channel, Polk S15 Surround Speakers SVS SB12-NSD x2

Great advice here. +1 -
Multi-channel receivers are notorious for having overrated power output, but I'm not sure if that applies to stereo receivers. Being as that stereo receivers are about the same size as multi-channel receivers and yet have only 2 channels instead of 5 or 7, I'd expect there to be more power output per channel. Plus, multi-channel receivers have a lot more functionality, and so that's even less space going towards the engine bay.
Like the others have said, it generally never hurts to have more power available. But, IMO, if the Outlaw 2150 does what the manufacturer says it will do, then you're not in too bad of a spot.
You mentioned that it gets "warm." Are you concerned about its 4 ohm stability?Denon X7200WA
