This quickly becomes a big rabbit hole because of that.
In very basic terms is your receiver " putting out" efficient enough power to drive your speakers to your preferred listening levels.
I would point out if you're looking to upgrade the sound you hear, you should look at your speakers, their placements & room environment 1st.
That would have a much bigger difference in SQ over an external amp imo.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank d3a1z
As for the additonal power, I would not expect a night and day difference, but it is always better to have too much on tap for better control of your speakers and less risk of damaging them with distortion.

This is a new realm for me tho, so I'm not totally sure what to look for in the settings.
That said…I did order the 7 channel. I'm running a 5.2.4 system now Front speakers are Monolith T6 Towers, which are not very efficient (4 ohms, 87.8dB sensitivity). I see they can be bi-amped, another thing I'm not well-versed on. But potentially I could use 4 channels for the fronts, 1 for center, and 2 for my side surrounds, leaving the Denon to power just the 4 Atmos speakers, which I'm sure would be light work for it.
I'm also planning to have my setup professionally calibrated with the MiniDSP, and I'd rather have the hardware in place before I do that, so I don't end up needing to do that over if I add an amp later.
