I can understand your enthusiasm believe me. I have a 2 channel set up, well it's actually 2.1, with an amp preamp set up.

If you have a chance before you buy this amp try and push the M80s with what you use for the M22s. You might just be surprised how damn good they sound with your receiver.

I power mine with a Rotel amp and also have a Luxman M117 hooked up to them. I use the Rotel for the lows and the Luxman for the highs.

To be honest if the Luxman wasn't a gift there is no way I could in good conscious recommend this set up for the simple fact I don't hear a huge difference.

I've tried both amps and honestly there's no difference in sound quality.

I'd hate to see you spend this kind of money and not see or hear a difference between that and an amp that could be had for a fraction of the price.
