Hegel H300 vs Naim Supernait 2 vs Modwright KWI200
Thanks for the suggestion.Is 60W enough? I forgot to mention the Pass lab INT-150 or 30A.AX5 is just too much $. I'm also considering the small Devialet.

Cheap receiver + amp vs Expensive receiver
DTC,If I don't want to use the tube amps for HT, then unfortunately swapping speaker cables is the only option for now unless I buy another pair of monitors just for HT. Wife wouldn't want to see 6 speakers in front of us. 
Cheap receiver + amp vs Expensive receiver
It looks like a 2nd hand Onkyo Integra pre/pro + 2nd hand 5 channels amp will be much better a brand new $2000 receiver! 
Thiel CS3.7 vs WP8?
