The AVR class I'm looking at (Onkyo NR1/3/5007)....

It looks like Sound and Vision benched the NR5007 at 68 WPC 5 and 7 channel driven before "protection circuitry" kicks in.
Are these just measurements and won't really have that real world difference?
I think the 1007 and 5007 have the same components and output other than the Video chips....
Will that be enough for my 5.1/Heights/Zone 2?
Or should I add an amp?
Do you add an amp that does all 7 channels or just the L/C/R and let the receiver do the rest? Receiver and amp is not additive, correct?
EDIT: Thinking of Emotiva UPA-7 or XPA-3 after 2 recommendations.....
