Hi guys,
Do you think that this receiver has enough power to drive a pair of Rti10 in stereo and all my set up with movies?

Thanks,

    That is an AWESOME receiver! It has a great amount of power alone to power what you've got (100w per channel). I suggested amplification on RTi10s is 20w-300w per channel. So go ahead and crank that ****! Even if you added an amp you'll still have enough power capacity on the RTi10s.

    I love my Onkyo too...

    I had the Onk 705 running RTi10's - you CAN get away without Amp. (tho sounded better with) I also felt bi-amping was big (and cheaper) improvement. I you're concerned, you could try picking up an 805 (currently real cheap since just discontinued).

    I also really love the Onk's - 700 series one of the best bang for the bucks out there. And the nice part is that at least you do have option of adding Amp in the future. But for movies I think you'll be perfectly happy with just the receiver.
