What is a good power amplifier?


I wanted to ask what would be a good warm sounding 150 to 200
watt five channel power amp to pre amp out of my Onkyo TX-NR818? I am using paradigm monitor 11 v6 in the front and monitor 9 V6 in the rear. I know that these speakers are efficient,but wanting something that won't make my tweeters
explode my ear drums. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Also, I wanted to thank you all for the previous
questions I had before..

Unless its really overbuilt, if you want it to sound nice you will be better off getting separate amplifiers rather than all in one box.

You say the speakers are efficient and you are "wanting something that won't make my tweeters explode my ear drums".

In that case get a tube amp(s) for the front channels. That will tone things down (without loosing highs).
