He was shutting down Outlaws multichannel amp not what I would consider separates. He did not, as far as I know, shut down a Parasound amp. He also ran them with a Sony receiver for a while with no problems, go figure.

Also, Tharkun was running, what, a 7.4 system composed solely of M80s and EP600s or something? Poor thing was being treated like a stick welder.

I've been running my M80's to uncomfortable levels with my old Sony ES1000 without any shutdown issues. Who woulda thunk it? \:o

Here's a question I've been meaning to ask and would be nice to see someone from Axiom chime in.

WHY are the M80's a 4ohm speaker in the first place? It seems highly unusual, from the small amount of research I have been doing, to see any other towers in a 4ohm configuration.
