Oh yea... of course... power outputs! The stereo amp is 60w and the
receiver is 85w per channel. The bi-amping idea WILL sound odd then!

I might just run the front speakers on the NAD via the pre-outs of the
receiver then, and set the NAD as a straight power amp & see what the
auto setup comes up with! You're right though, it will prob be hard to
get the balance right. I'll try it - if it gets awkward, I'll just see
how the receiver copes with music by itself and make life simple! :-)
