I ended up finding the Sony reciever for $660CAD! What do I need for speaker cables? This seems expensive for a cable but I think invited cables has fair pricing. 45$ 10ft cable https://www.infinitecables.com/products/premium-phantom-cables-banana-clip-speaker-cable-ft4?variant=42810894713073

Hey community, This is what I’m thinking: Sony STR-AN1000. I think this is probably too expensive for this set up. - $898CAD 2 x KEF Q150 - $498CAD sony a95k as center channel. Figure I should try this before buying a dedicated center, and I don’t really have space for the center right now.

Had a hard time finding these online, thanks for the advice. I think I'll skip on these ones.
