I'm looking for a pair of bookshelf speakers under $300 that will suit my old Onkyo TX-SV424. After doing some research I came across the Wharfedale Diamond 10.2's which fit into my budget perfectly, but I'm just not sure if they'll work with the with the Onkyo. I know very little about speakers and was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to help me out?
 
The amp's specs are as follows:
 
6 Ohms Front 2x50 watt
8 0hms Center 1x50 watt
8 0hms Rear 2x15 watt
 
I want to know if the Diamond 10.2's will work with my amp, and if not, what are some good alternatives?
 
Thanks in advance.
 
Edit: After having a look at Wharfedale's website, it seems the 10.2's have a nominal impedance of 6 ohms and a suitable amplifier power of 20-100 watts, does that mean I can connect the speakers to the front 2x50 watt inputs?

In your situation, I would check out the Cambridge S30, and offerings from Hsu and B&W. They seem to do good work in that price range.

[size=8pt]Another possibility that I would strongly recommend is the Tannoy Reveal 601p which is the passive version of the Tannoy Reveal 601a and the price is only $125 each in USA. [/size]

Thanks for the suggestions, but can anyone clarify if the Wharfedale's will work with my amp?

All I can say without hearing them is Wharfedale has ports in the back which will affect the bass more depending on room placement and the B&W has ports on the front and can be placed against the wall. I would need to hear them to be sure since it is my ears that matter and other opinions are just that.  The [size=small]Wharfedale  sure does look nice, with curved side panels, unique woofer design and six different finshes.[/size]
 
P.S. I have heard the B&W big Nautitus long ago and it was very crispy and airy sounding. The B&W has a Aluminium tweeter and the [size=small]Wharfedale   has a soft dome. I suspect that the B&W might be crisper sounding and the [size=small]Wharfedale [/size] might be smoother in sound because of the soft dome which I normally perfered for myself, providing everthing else is equal.
