Amp/ receiver advice for Spendor SP2/3's


I need some basic advice about what to look for in a receiver to "adequately", or "properly" power these speakers. The room is ~25'x15'x9'....and I listen to a great variety of music...cuban "folk", celtic, jazz, rock -though nothing screaming.
Much technical advice I read is a bit over my head...but I'm learning. I realize that "adequately" & "properly" may be too subjective. Would a Yamaha RX-596 do the job ? Should I look for something else ? many thanks

I would forget the receiver idea, these speakers are worthy of far better electronics, the better the source, the better the electronics the MUCH better these will sound. I mean yes a reciever will play them but not to their potential.
