I'm leaning toward ceiling rears due to layout. My fronts are Klipsch RF3II's and Center is a Klipsch RC3II. The matching ceiling speakers are rated at 50 watts:

My receiver is a Pioneer Elite VSX-41 that puts out "110 watts" per channel.


Should I be concerned with using these speakers with my receiver?


The alternative is the smallest reference bookshelf:

Yes it is ok to run them with a 110 watt receiver. The Pioneer is not putting out 110 watts with all channels driven anyway. The rear channels will draw less power than the mains. The speaker will probably not draw more than 15 watts continuously. You will have more than enough power for the peaks.


You run more of a risk underpowering a speaker than overpowering it.
