To whomever would know:
I'm thinking of buying one of those new Sony Digital Receivers, the ES line. I'd like to get the one that has S-Video up-conversion, but it is 150 watts per channel. I know my front speakers can handle it, but I'm not sure about the backs. Rti 4 and FXi 3's. Can they handle 150 watts, or will I blow them out? 150 is 25 watts above the recommended maximum for the smaller speakers. I do like it loud sometimes, although not unreasonably loud. My current settings are: Front L/R-large, all the rest small, crossover set to 60 Hz. Is there a better setting to reduce the likelyhood of a blowout? How do these receivers perform with the Polk speakers, anyone know? Thanks.
