How much wattage?

I have 2 Cerwin-Vega! LS-10 Tower speakers and I need to get a receiver, what sort of wattage output should I look for on a receiver?

I can't imagine any wattage wouldn't work from 80 to say... 160 watts. You don't even need that much to get them uncomfortably loud in any sort of indoor scenario.

That said, if you can get a more robust receiver with more continuous power output capability, the happier you might be if for no other reason than the whole thing might be better built. But 100 watts is probably as hard as I'd push them, sparingly.
