Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Advice from Axiom Owners M80's on the way, need advice...please

The Emotiva Flux Waveform Limiter was over loaded.

Better than being a troubling freaky maker, I guess.

Dduval, I've got the Outlaw M2200's driving M80's. I've driven them hard (mostly when I first got them) up 110 db's for 45 min or more, and never a shutdown after owning them for nearly 2 years. No hum issues, and definitely cleaner output at higher volumes than the 3805. It's a great product that's within your budget.

Of course when the A1400-2 comes out....

Congrats on your choice of M80's. Welcome to the club. I thought perhaps you might be David Duval the pro golfer too but I guess not. Any ways, whatever you decide to drive your 80's with I'm sure you will be very happy with their incredible sound. Enjoy.

Merchman,

Thanks so much! I'm really excited. My first name is Dana, so it's kinda close to "david", I tell everyone he's my brother But really, I think I'm going to go ahead and try the emo RPA-2 ($699.00). I'll just have to return it if it keeps shutting down...

I love the looks of the RPA-2, I almost purchased the RPA-1 a few years back before I settled on the MPS-1. Maybe I should have went with my first choice.

Ah Geeeezzz! You made me look at the freakin MPS-2! Rated into 2 ohms even! Same wattage as the RPA-2 even into 4 ohms. Darn! Another $1000.00 bucks and I'm there!

I've got to stay away from this thread!

I have a LPA-1, and a XPA-5 and have had no shutdown issues with my M80s with either amp. I will probably purchase the RPA-2 this year. I am using a Yamaha RX-V1800 as a pre-amp until the UMC-1 is available.

Excellent Gemeyer, man that's good to hear! Thanks again to all for the good advice and feedback!!
