I think it would be a combination of the two!

mdrew,
I think Clint did a pretty thorough review of the Emotiva amp. He measured about everything you would want to know about. When he was doing listening tests he used his RBH T-30LSE's which are modified versions of the T1's and 1010-se subwoofer together as one speaker. The T-30LSE is a 4-ohm load and it seems like a difficult one at that. The subwoofer section has no internal amplification. So, he was driving both with one channel of the amp. If the amp could hand this I think the m80's should be no problem.

You missed the point Nick. They have gone downhill over the years. I stopped reading anything they put up a while ago. The boards are filled with jackasses anymore as well.

mdrew,
I have been regularly using their site for reviews and getting a/v news for about five years now and haven't noticed any downward trend in the quality. The reviews have always been top notch. In fact, audioholics helped me figure out that my Bose acoustimass speakers suck. They helped lead me to Axiom speakers as well as many of the other upgrades that I have done. I can't comment on the boards as I don't use them at all. Most forums are filled with jackasses though as you mention. Except this one (the Axiom forum) is definitely one of the better ones around.

Anyone else think this thread will get revived in 10 years with the title:
"The rusted Ear-drum club"?

It's better to burn out than to fade away.
