I bought a Denon AVR2106 to power the SVS 5.1 system. The Denon arrived today (speakers not for another couple of weeks) and it sounds pretty good.

If those SVS speakers are truly as neutral as their FR charts claim, I'd try the digital switching Panasonic sa-xr55 first, $230 shipped from amazon.com

Don't get too hung-up on the wattage #s. I had a 65wpc HK, and it handled my speakers as capably (or better) than a Denon rated at >100wpc. HK conservatively rates their wattage.

Like gum stuck to your shoe no matter where you go he's there.

I agree with the above poster. H/K definitely rates their wattage conservatively.

The pioneer 1015tx will be a hands down winner when it comes to features and sound quality. Lou

For features yes the Pioneer might have an edge, but the HK has much better sound quality to my ears.

Very popular choice, so probably can't go too wrong.
