You should be OK. Don't worry about the 75wpc rating as that's more than you'll likely need. At least with Rotel, they are publishing the real wpc with 5 channels being driven, something Denon, Yammie, or most other Japanese receivers don't do. FWIW, watts are overrated. Those speakers are pretty inefficient at 86dB's and 4 ohm nominal but Rotel usually uses big power supplies so your current delivery should be up to the task. The website doesn't say if the receiver is stable at 4 ohms with all channels driven so I'd ask your dealer. My guess is you'll be fine.

Should be a great sounding rig ya got there. Enjoy.
