Actually in my first post I had a brain fart and Chris is correct.

I just doubled the 8Ohm usual spec that is the easiest to find when reading through spec sheets.

The 3808 is capable of 238W into 4 ohms according to some lab tests. So you would need a ~500W 4ohm capable amp to derive easily heard/loud benefits. This is where the Emotiva amps come into play, as they are the lowest priced amp, it seems, with these kind of specs avaialble.
