However, I do have an amplifier problem driving the M80s, since occasionally they drive my Onkyo 3008 into protection mode. The Onkyo 3008 is supposed to drive 4 ohm speakers, and I don't listen at high levels, so this was a surprise to me. And a couple weeks from now, I'm going to replace my VP150 with a VP180, so I suppose the amplifier problem will get worse. Do you think adding an Emotiva XPA-3 to drive the M80s and VP180 will fix this?



What is the ohm setting in the receiver menu?
