audionoob1 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 In a dilemma right now with receivers and need a suggestion. I've settled on purchasing the RP-250F, R-112SW, RP-440C and RP-240S speakers. Now I'm looking for AV Receiver that can power them. Ideally I would like a smaller receiver, with a warm sound, 4K pass through, 7.1 channels and Audyssey MultEQ (XT or better would be ideal). I had planned on going with the Denon X3300W but came across the much smaller Marantz NR1607. Would the Marantz power those speakers? Or does anyone have any other suggestions?

Seraphim6801 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 I'm waiting on a Yamaha Adventage to show up in the mail any day now. Its got YPAO or something like that that's akin to the Audessy suite. Its supposed to power a pair of RF7s and an RC64 center channel.. If its a success id be glad to let you know if the Yamaha is a viable option to the Marantz. Sent from my VS986 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audionoob1 Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Thanks, let me know how it sounds. Does anyone else have any suggestions on a smaller sized amp that can power those speakers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboKlipsch Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 What do you mean by a smaller receiver with a warmer sound? Less watts, or physcially smaller? Cheaper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphim6801 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Just a note.. I got my Yamaha Aventage receiver in and i have very mixed feelings about it. It sounds ok. The YPAO setup was easy. But it lacks very basic tone control(only treble/bass). I guess I was expecting more from a thousand dollar purchase. It drives the Rf7s and RC64 just fine so there's no complaints about the power.
