As another point of reference for you, I've got the REF1000's driving Zu Druid (101 dB, 12 ohm). Best amps I've heard. And the speakers definitely like them. And they don't heat the room way up. At first I thought it was nuts to pair up 1000W with a 12-ohm wide-range speaker, but after enjoying the music for a while I really don't care how it looks. If I'm a nut, at least I'm a happy nut.
