Looking to get an Epic 80 for a dedicated room. Whats a good amp to drive these guys? Going to use a anthem d2 as a pre/pro, but don't want to spend 6-8k on amps. Any suggestions?
Seeing how you’re already looking at about 7 grand for the D2, you might want to send Ian an email and ask him about the amp that Axiom is coming out with in the very near future. From what I know, it’s going to set the stage for just about everyone to follow. I think they are gong to run about 3 grand for the seven channel amp. It’s got some sort of circuitry where power is directed to the channels that need it the most. Not your typical amp by any means.

I went for endurance... I was able to load the chassis empty, then load each monoblock. What a workout!! I had to "modify" the back panel to accomodate the amp - I forgot to take into account that doors have depth, so the amp now sticks out in back. It sure made cable management MUCH easier. I'll upload pics later. I hooked up my old Cambridge satelites (stereo only, no sub) and I don't remember them sounding that good before - of course It's been almost 2 years since I've heard them. What did I listen to? Classic Yo Yo. Can't wait to hear the M80's...
