Hello,
I'm looking for some advice as to the best A/V receiver to pair with the Energy C-300 5.1 surround system I just bought. My FL and FR are up to 125 watts, center is up to 100 watts, and rear surrounds are up to 100 watts. The sub is 8" with 200 watts. My room is approx 15'x13'. I want the receiver to be able to decode Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master HD so I've been leaning towards an Onkyo. I'd like to keep the receiver under $500. My questions are:
1) Is the Onkyo receiver (606) a good fit for this system? Or, any suggested alternatives that are better?
2) I've read that the 606 can heat up pretty good. I will be storing on a shelf in a wood tv stand. Is this okay?
3) If anyone is familiar with these speakers, any suggestions on what wiring I should buy would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!
Jeff
