Hi, I spent about 45 minutes searching for the answrer to this question but to no avail.

I'm about to pull the trigger on the epic 80 500 (before the price increase), but I need a receiver. It obviously needs to be 4 ohm stable. Anyone out there have this set of speakers? If so what receiver do you have?

some other questions:

how is it for music? I listen to bassy music for the most part (house, reggae, r&b), but I like all music genres.

Oh yeah, I'm spending over 3000$ for the speakers so I don't mind spending a bit on the receiver. My budget would be $1500 maybe? I could do more if I had to, but would definitely do LESS if I could (without sacrificing too much on quality).

I like onkyo receivers (I have a 605 that will be used for my daughter's 5.1 set up as soon as I get my axioms and receiver), but I'm not closed to other ideas.

Help a guy out, would ya?
