I have a Denon X4100w AVR that will run 5.2.4 but only if you use an amp for 2 channels. Would this work good on Goldenear 5 speakers?.

i am not familiar with Godenear speakers, but I'd guess this amp will drive them fine. I have been using this amp in a bi-amp 2-channel setup and it has been solid, reliable and quiet (no fans).

Have no idea. But it is a great uncolored reference amplifier. I use it on some massive synthesizers and it has no problems with bandwidth.

After a Google search on your GoldenEAR speakers, very nice by the way, the A500 can drive them easily. Your AVR has "Pre-Out" connections, so you can tell us which sound better- the internal or the Behringer external amp. If heat is a problem(in a closed cabinet), than the A500 with it's massive heat sinks and efficient Torrid would be worry free(provided there's space).

I don't see why it would be a problem, unless you're very particular about the preciseness of your sound. I have an old pair of 5.2's paired with this center channel. Mine sounds great. As long as the receiver has a port for it you should be fine.

Budget wise connect all four speakers to channels 1 & 2 and bridge 3 & 4 for the sub. It would work, but as to get the best performance from your speakers and sub I would have gone with a slightly more powerful amp. If you gots the cash, buy mono block amp cause that makes a difference. I know this amp all too well. Connected things all different ways to test for perfromance.

I have these speakers connected to the Harmon Kardon AVR 2650. I would say it's a middle of the road receiver, but performs very well. The type of AVR you go with will depend on what speaker setup you plan on (5.1, 7.1, 7.2, etc), so it's more of a personal preference. I also, have a pioneer that I've had since the early 2000s and have nothing but good to say about it even after all these years. I'm sorry if this wasn't too much help, but I don't want to give you a line of B.S. because I can only speak from my experience with my receivers. Good luck, and if you have anything else I can be of assistance with feel free to contact me again.Kind regards,Chris I have these speakers connected to the Harmon Kardon AVR 2650.

You only need to look at RMS power for 8 ohms. Klipsch speakers are rated at 8 ohms and are very sensitive too so you won't have any problem driving them with 100 watts per channel. I use a denon 3313ci with my Klipsch RF-62 5.1 setup and it sounds great. Make sure you aDr a good subwoofer too. The best addition to my surround system is my SVS PB2000. I can't believe the difference it made.

I have a denon myself.. If you have an aux switch you may be able to use your receiver.., If not get a pre amp.. This turn table is awesome.. i highly recommend it.. Best value out there..

I'm using these as fronts in a 5.1 set up. They are powered by a Harmon Kardon 1510 AVR, rated to oush 75w per. Believe m when I tell you that you will abslutely NOT be disappointed with these speakers as fronts. They will handle bass (tight and solid), midrange and highs (clarity and detail). They have a zobel crossover configuration in them so you can't go wrong. These are very good speakers, and will stand up to speakers costing more then twice as much. If you doubt, just youtube it for a user review.

Absolutely! This receiver lets you use a setup "up to" 7.2 channels. The speaker inputs are labeled for 5.1 as well. That's what I'm doing right now, secure in the knowledge that I can always add another two satellites and a second subwoofer later. Take a look at a picture showing the back of the receiver, the input panel, and you'll see it's labeled for 5.1 as well. Hope this helps!

More than enough power to drive most speakers. Very clean power, too. The only problem is mixing "pro" gear with "consumer" gear. The output voltage from your preamp has to be high enough to drive the amp. I returned mine for just that reason. Oddly enough, my Zune drove it beautifully, but my Denon AVR would not. Your want to check your preamp's line voltage and be sure it's high enough for the Crown to "hear" it. I don't recall the exact specs, but it's somewhere around 3v (+/-) for home gear and around 5v (+/-) for pro gear.The other interesting thing is that your left and right channels have individual volume controls, so you have to manually set your levels. This is a pro or a con, depending on what you like. More than enough power to drive most speakers. Very clean power, too. The only problem is mixing "pro" gear with "consumer" gear.

Or you could check out what are known as "head pre-amps" that will amplify the signal from the cartridge so that it meets the Denon receiver's minimum input requirement.When I was shopping around for a new multi-channel receiver or a simple stereo pre-amp/amp the salesman recommended that I go for a stereo pre-amp/amp since it would have a phono input, but the usual receivers don't.

It should be OK. My Yamaha avr can get to 95w and these spkrs are still fine at very loud level (my ear drums start getting hurt)

Just finished setting up my 507 over the weekend, it sounds great, love it for the price, it should enough power for most of the home theather system. It support 5.1 only, if you want 7.2 then should go with the 607. I had been research, compare the similar features and price range receiver such as Yamaha, Denon, Sony, etc, and read a lot of customer review, I finally settle with the 507, I am not regret at all. Good luck.

I have a 200 Watts per channel Adcom amp on them with no issues. This is is a separate amp not an AVR so it is a true 200 Watts unlike todays AVRs that are overrated and underpowered. I must admit it took awhile to break them in to get them to play bass so be patient.

As long as your AVR 3801 is a surround receiver, you should be able to plug it in via the analog 5.1 audio outputs into the multi channel inputs on your receiver. This way you can use the DD+ and Dolby True HD decoders built into the XA2. Just Make sure That you set the XA2 to PCM 5.1 out. Hopefully this helped.

Hello Joseph M and thank you for your inquiry.The Denon AVR-X3000 does have TWO subwoofer preamp outputs allowing for the support of dual subwoofers.I hope this answer helps but please let us know if you have any additional questions.Thanks again, Scott G and the rest of the ListenUp.com sales team

I just bought the speakers and paired them with Denon AVR-S500BT; awesome. The price is similar to Onkyo but Denon has the auto calibration tool. The setup is also very easy, just another option for you to consider.Either way, it should work.

This amplifier works well with the ONKYO TX-NR3010 and is necessary to go from 9.2 or 9.4 to 11.2 or 11.4. It basically is used to power a pair of wide front speakers. And so, if the question is will it power two speakers, the answer is yes. You can always go to the Onkyo website and download the Owners Manual which is the best way to determine if it meets your needs.
