Yeah Jay, and in some respects it would be a tougher test. The M22s drop to about 3ohms in an upper-midrange area(which would hit about 1.5 ohms in parallel)and are a bit less sensitive and require more power than M80s. Besides theory, practical tests with M22s in parallel a few years ago plus trying various receivers on a speaker owned by a colleague, having both a lower impedance curve and lower sensitivity than the M80s(Magnepan 1.6), are factors which lead me not to overestimate the difficulty in driving something like the M80s. Played at normally loud levels with even material having very wide dynamic range there should be no trouble in the vast majority of home systems. Of course almost anything can be forced to shut down if driven hard enough and long enough.
