Sorry if posting this 2x but I can't find my other one. Any info on this amp I would use it for the front 60s or the 80s as it is 4ohm capable, if I do upgrade to the 80s?

Just doing some research and can't find any reviews on it but I would prefer first hand info from anyone here if possible. It would wired from my yamaha 5760 receiver which is 7.1 95/channel system. I wonder how they would sound together with either pair of speakers. If you can help me decide on this one THANK YOU!

My current dilemna!

Hi there, unfortunately nothing from this group but I found some info on my own other people and some presonal reviews and found out that these amps are top notch in the sense that they output quality power with out distortion and the supply and parts are also very high end so the amp is very stable through out the range from RMS to dynamic peaks it performs identical. As for the sound supposable it is ultra clear and so it is to be an excellent match to yamaha receivers as I have. Beyond this I will review it more once I recieve my order> I purchased one of Ebay recently but has not come yet because it is by Ground the shipping was a little steep because of the weight so I chose ground. (waiting.......) let you know soon....

I like the high end Yamaha amps. I use 3 Yamaha M80s which run 30 watts per channel in pure Class A (8 ohms), and then from 30 to to 250 wpc (continuous 20-20KHz) in AB. (dynamic 1KHz/8ohms 380 wpc) I think it's very rare that I exceed 30 wpc even with the Thiels. The Axioms are even more efficient.

I haven't heard the 830 but those who have love it. Let us know how you like it.
