Are you using a receiver/amp to drive the (passive/traditional) speakers or do you actually need active/powered speakers (that might even need to be Airplay/etc and/or Bluetooth-capable?) or the like? If you just need passive/traditional speakers on a very tight budget (perhaps w/ a bit of bass...

No, that should be no problem at all for those (and any other comparably decent-to-good) AVRs. Also, typically, the RMS power rating on speakers are pretty meaningless -- you can generally, completely ignore them. For power ratings on speakers, the efficiency and impedance would generally...

To clarify, I'm not suggesting you go w/ separates or even add external amp (for say the front LCR channels) since you need to keep sound levels lower in your situation anyway. Maybe someday if/when you can actually play loud enough to matter, then you might well consider adding an external amp...

I'd probably go for the Denon over Onkyo if both appear to meet all your requirements. Onkyo has gone downhill over the past decade and probably was a tad below Denon for quality, probably particularly reliability, all along anyway. Having said that, I don't actually use AVR myself -- I'd much...

Hi, Alberto. Welcome to HTF. IF your budget is on the tighter side (or simply could use some more managing), I'd say spend less on the screen. And you probably don't need a gray screen anyway, if you're going to have reasonably light-controlled room -- if you can at all, probably much better...
