The 802ds are very good speakers that will benefit greatly from a better amplifier than is in the Yamaha.  Ditto w speaker wires.   For wires and interconnects, stay away from Best Buy; that kind of stuff is their biggest mark-up item.  Best if you give us a budget of what you can spend.  Those speakers in particular are very revealing and will benefit the most from putting most of your money in a good amplifier.
