I have an Onkyo Tx-sr805 (130 watts per channel) and an Adcom GFA 545 (100 watts per channel). I was thinking of bridging the receiver and using that to run the RTi 12's. I would use the Adcom to run the center and get another to run the surrounds.

Another idea is to get a 200 watt Adcom on ebay and use the receiver to run the center and surrounds.

    I think if it were me I would go for the extra amp route. The 12's love clean power, which an amp will provide more than a receiver. A 200 watt per channel amp would work well for your 12's as fronts and you could use your receiver to power your center and surrounds. You could also play around with using your gfa 545 with your center or surrounds as well.
