Marantz NR1602 slim, would it work well with some Bose 301 stereo speakers? What would be a good center option?

I need a new amp and love the look of the Marantz slim line, whilst in the shop I also noticed the Bose 301 speakers which just look the dogs and being Bose should sound good.  Right??????

I've not had a bemo yet.....

Can anybody advise if 50W would be enough to power the bad boys?

Also could anybody suggest a good centre speaker to work with the Bose as they don't make one.

....

Cheers.

I'd bet a set of KEF Q300 speakers at around the same price at the moment would match better with the Marantz.

Oh and a KEFQ200c to Match offering perfect tonal balance across the front.
