Thanks guys. Looks like I'll go EP500. Mrs. JazZed will be happy I can match finishes with the M80s.
So, Jc, and please forgive my ignorance, I gather from your post that I can run either bare wire or spades from the HK 3480 Main Speaker Outs (which are currently driving my M80s) to the EP500 High Level Inputs and then banana plug my M80s into these same High Level Input jacks (essentially pig-tailing the speaker connection)?
And by doing so I can utilize the EP500's on-board Crossover?
If so, this is great as I was concerned that the HK was going to limit my ability to fine tune the sub due to its 'preset' sub out.
Hmmm - can I utilize the EP500 on-board crossover, as above, by simply running the HK Speaker 2 Outputs to the EP500 High Level Inputs - and continue to drive the M80s from Speaker 1 (Main) Outputs?
