Denon AVR-3300 and NHT 2.5i

I just got a 3300 & a pair of NHT 2.9's - the Denon seems to do ok best I can tell.

I own a Nakamichi AV10 with NHT 2.5i. The AV10 puts out 100 wpc and works great with the NHT's. I love these speakers and highly recommend them. I was considering the Denon AVR-3300 until I heard the Nakamichi. They were both in the same store, so it was easy to compare the Nakamichi with the Denon using the same NHT 2.5i speakers.

Make sure that you listen to the combination first (i.e. take your Denon with you to the store), as the 2.5i are somewhat sensitive to the quality of the components that drive them. I also suggest that you get one NHT SA-2 sub-amp and thus by-amp them, and these speakers will come alive... with a lot a bottom end. The SA-2 retails for $400.
