I said above +5 is intolerable and that's true for Renee Olstead's song. This morning I set the M100s to play full range with 800 on (what Onk calls double bass). I listened to Wycliffe Gordon's St. Louis Blues (all three versions) on Spotify and hot damn...I gave that sucker +5 and then a bit more and it shook my innards! Admittedly I can't listen to that level for long...I wish I could...but even at 0 it was marvellous. My Onk just can't retain its composure at 0 gain.

That was 1100 peak Watts on each side and that may be low because my meter may not be responding fast enough. The M100/1500 combo sounded so absolutely composed at that level.

Damn it all! Now I may be getting hooked on that 1500 like I got hooked on the v4s. I really, really hate Axiom! LOL!
