    "Really brought the speakers to life compared to previously running on Yamaha Aventage receiver that pushed 140 watts per channel 2 channel driven. Sound is noght and day. ...Surprised that I have to turn the volume up to the same levels as before; since the Denon receiver is 140w per channel into 2 channels, I was expecting the 140w per channel of the Marantz to play louder, but it doesn't."
