Hi fredk
Good point! My model is the Poineer Elite VSX-81TXV. I'm looking at the owners manual which states 6 and 8 ohm @ 110 w per channel (not 120 per channel, my bad).
I assume if I set it to 6 ohm that it would be OK. The amp portion would work a little harder but shouldn't cause issues unless I crank it for too long...not that I do anyways! Currently I only listen at -35 to -30 for movies/TV given the small space of my theater room.
I could Bi-amp but then I'd have to eliminate the QS8's to do that, not really my preference.
As I said earlier I could just go with the M60's but wouldn't want buyers remorse later. Though I haven't auditioned either the reviews on both towers is very positive. I've heard the VP150 and own the M22's both of which are excellent.
