Choo, welcome. You don't make clear your reference to a "dedicated" amplifier. Most Axiom users, including those with M80s, are successfully using one of the high quality receivers which are available at moderate cost and are of course just as "dedicated". You should consider one of the Onkyo or Denon factory refurbished units available in the $500-$800 area.
