The ATI AT3002 looks like a mighty solid amp. Definitely something to consider. Thanks for your info. More suggestions are still welcome :-)

If you're considering Emotiva, you should also look at D-sonic's Ice Powered amps. You can have them configured however you like. They are getting a lot of chat time on the internet lately, and they have a 21 day return policy.
If I wasn't in lust over the Axiom amp, I'd have bought one already.

I owned an MPS-1 for about 3 months. It kept shutting down when driving my m80v2's at what I would call "not insane" volumes.
Strange... I have the LPA-1 driving my M80's to very high volumes, and haven't had a shut down since purchase about 2 months ago. I run the M80's in Large mode, no sub, as well... maybe you had a faulty unit?

Using two channels with your LP-1, what wattage do you achieve per channel?

Ravi, you obviously didn't read all of my posts from Jan-March. I worked with Emotiva and received replacement amps on numerous occasions. There have been others with different brand of speakers (4ohm) with the same issues).
The problem was with their proprietary built in clipping limiter. Even Gene at Audioholics had a similar issue with his MPS-1.
I really don't want to start the discussion all over again, but I have not had any issues since I've gone to mono's. Your LPA-1 does not have the protective limiter either, so if you go into clipping it will keep on going.

sirquack,
I evidently did not read your posts. It's unfortunate that they were unable to fix the problem. Hopefully for them they will improve their limiter protection in future versions.
