Wow. Thank you very much Alan! Great info, as usual.
Oh yes, 105+db is crazy loud. I'd never actually watch an entire movie or listen to music at that volume. But I want my system to be able to peak at that cleanly if I need it to. Everyone enjoys cranking up a demo scene, every now and then.
I didn't realize that Onkyo's (of the past) were on the 'iffy' list for receivers. Of course, it doesn't technically matter for me because I can continue to use my LPA to drive the M80's, if I were to get an 'iffy' receiver.
