You menioned this before on another post, not sure where your figuring $2300, mine only cost me around $1500. Besides your not talking apples to apples comparing Emotiva to Odyssey anyway.
$2300 is what they have quoted on their website. I didn't scour the internet for the best deal as I'm sure you did. $1500 sounds fairly reasonable. However I guess if the M80's only consume 1-3 watts for the majority of the time, there may not be a need for an external amplifier after all. Which is great news as it would free up more money for a BluRay player now that I've discovered the DVD1800 doesn't even have RCA outs (ARRGGGG!!!!), and the only players I've found so far that do are around $1500! Goodness
