I bought a new-old stock Yamaha RX-V1000 receiver, and wanted to find out if I need to add a power amp to power my "main" large floor speakers. I have not connect the receiver in my home yet, because I am in the middle of moving, but it is connected in my work shop to a pair of small Advent bookself speakers. The Advents are very easy to drive, but it seems the Yamaha is enough to power these, but I think the large Cerwin Vegas would be a little to much for it. I plan to go with Magnepan MMG later on, and I am sure the Yamaha would have a problem driving those. I have a chance to pick up a Adcom GFA-545 power amp, it would be enough for the floor speakers, but it does not have a gain control. Should I add this amp to power my main speakers, and use the receiver to power the rear surround and center channel? Could you get this amp to blend with the output of the surround sound speakers? I am new to surround sound, any advice is appreciated.
Thanks
