[QUOTE="Foxtrix, post: 1189750, member: 31680"] The Pioneer VSX 935 will not drive those RF2 properly unfortunately. Even something small like a Fosi Audio BT20A will do a better job than the Pioneer in terms of amplification. Basically don't expect to get anywhere near 90 dB with a proper amount of headroom, without distortion. Its an unfortunate situation with no pre-outs etc., so you are pretty much stuck with the amplification you have unless you change the receiver. There is very little reason to ever run your towers as full range speakers, whether they cost R10 000 or R200 000. You virtually ALWAYS want to have a crossover active, mostly for a seemless integration with subwoofers. Generally how do Bentley's measure? Mostly fine - nothing that cannot be EQ'ed out if you so desire. They do sound best though for music when not fiddled with too much. [/QUOTE]
