Speaker selection and amplifier power ratings Too often we receive speakers for warranty repair in which the woofer voice coils are frozen and charred. The voice coil that drives the cone has overheated and burnt. (Sometimes the speaker cone even catches fire!).
I've got an odd-shaped room where I'm preparing to install a new set of speakers and a new receiver. I'm currently leaning toward a Yamaha HTR-5760 and a set of the Bose mini-speakers that I can drop down from the ceiling, but that's not set in stone yet. The wall the TV will sit against is being constructed as we speak and I've already run speaker wire in the wall, so going with the ceiling installed mini-speakers will be most convenient and will leverage my wiring investment best.
Any and all advice is welcome, since I'm an acoustical newbie for sure, but I'm primarily concerned about:
1. Subwoofer placement
2. Rear/surround placement (The primary viewing locations will be about 4-5 feet off the corner opposite the TV)
Floorplan for the room can be viewed at the following link:

I haven't used this, I simply came across a refrence is a stereo magazine, but it might be nice to toy with, and the price is right - FREE.
