ya you should be fine, its only 100w per channel @8ohms....

just make sure your speakers are 8ohm or more. ie dont run 4 ohm speakers with this or oyull blow the circuits....

Does it matter if the connections on the speakers are different from the ones on the receiver? The ones on the receiver are the large banana plugs; whereas on the satellite speakers its the small connections for the

no, those type of connections can accept banana plugs OR they *unscrew* and will allow a normal type of speaker wire connection, i.e. bare wires.
