I really doubt you will blow your speakers, unless you
feed them a badly distorted program. You should be fine.
All speakers are a current driven device. The use of heavy
hook up wire and the shortest possible run from the
Amplifier is highly recommended. Read and understand
all of your Owner’s Manuals so you can get the very best
out of said equipment. Be sure to plug all of your equipment
in the same properly grounded outlet. The use of a surge
suppression power strip is always a good idea, too.
I wish you and yours all of the very best.

I agree with MikeP. What is said is correct. You should be fine

actually i think you will be fine i run 60 watts thru 13 watt speakers and theyve never blown alot of speakers can handle 50 watts higher then they are rated for not including really small speakers like computer speakers plus u wont be pumping 130 watts thru them unless the reciever is turned all the way up

You should be fine with your speakers, the chances of blowing them are more of a problem with an underpowered receiver and cranking it up than with a good quality unit such as you have. You’ll have a smooth power supply to feed them with the Denon. I wouldn’t turn up the volume at maximum levels of course but you should have no problems at all. Enjoy.
