Can someone please suggest a good receiver for my Mirage OMD-15 and OMD-CC1 setup? I might be adding rear speakers for 5.1 later on.

I am looking for a good receiver for around $500-600. Is it possible to get something in this price range that wouldn't be too underpowered for these speakers? I dont want to spend $500 on a receiver and then later find out that they are not cutting it.

Thanks much

Onkyo TX SR 806 is 130wpc, high current and has all the bells and whistles for under $600.

Thanks for reply raven...

Would Onkyo 706 be ok? Or do I need 806 to run the speakers properly?

Go with the 806 if your looking for a lot of power. The 706 is only 10wpc more than the 606.
However those Mirage Speakers are very efficient with a sensitivity 91dB and the 606 or 706 would be fine.

the 806 gives you more flexibility in the future if you ever want to upgrade to a more demanding speaker. The 806 also has a better amp section and more features and is a beefier receiver weighing 10lbs more than the 706.
