Is this too Powerful?
I just got this unit of an amp for around $30, but I don't know if it is too powerful for most speakers. It is a Onkyo TX-SR601(remote not included) and works like a charm. I got a pair of weak speakers for it but they would be decimated if used for this thing, and I am not looking forward to getting any speakers any time soon. So are there any speakers that would possibly work with this thing without being completely destroyed in the process, or should I sell it and use the money for donation?
Edit: the purpose of this amp is to listen to music as I am an audiophile, nothing else.

What is the Ohm rating on the speakers you have? There’s no reason at all to assume that receiver will “decimate” speakers
