hi, i've been reading some of your posts and it was very informative(regarding the diff levels of AMP to Speaker match). Am torn between getting a HTIB Samsung HT-x250 and getting new speakers for my rx-795a. If i do get speakers for the Yammy, what would match my amp? Some say Wharfdale? What type?
any suggestions from others would be warmly welcomed, thank you. 
I would go for new speakers for your Yamaha instead of HtIB. As long as there are 5.1 analog inputs your reciever will not be outdated.
If you are on a budget, go for Wharfes, but also try entry level Monitor audio, Q acoustics, Paradigm, etc.
I have a yamaha rx-v350 connected to 4 wharfe 8.1 and 8.c, ok naman for my 15 sqm room.
I'm planning to move the set to a bigger room (25 sqm).
Would you advice me to use my wharfe 8.3 or 8.4 for fronts in lieu of 8.1?
( 8.3 and 8.4 are used in another house. )
Just get a more powerful ampli/receiver for your bigger room.
Again let me share my discovery that the more powerful your amp is, the more it fills the room. Its not just the size of your speaker or how many woofers it has.
I have heard
surround size speakers fill up a big showroom with sound when powered by a powerful receiver. I recently power amped my tiny
satellite speakers and to my surprise, it filled up my whole room, as compared to an entry level receiver before.
Custom installed HT's in the US mags use bookshelf size speakers but all use powerful $1000-4000 receivers or power amps.
Your room boundaries aid in reinforcing the sound of your speakers. With a bigger room and farther boundaries, reinforcement is less, you therefore need more power. more power=more money involved.
If you are on a budget, I suggest you stay in your older 15sqm room. If you arent going to play your HT loud (I doubt) in your bigger room, then dont change anything. If you arent sensitive to distortion, you may not need to change anything.
