How much Amp for Paradigm Studio 100 v2's


I recently bought a pair of Studio 100s and the integrated amp I hooked them up to (my early 80s era Yamaha A1 (70/80 watts @ 8/4 ohm)) causes the upper 8.5 " woofer to distort/clip at high volume. On line reviews indicate these speakers drop below 4 ohms, one suggesting a "good 4 ohm-rated amp". The speakers sound great otherwise. Do I just need a better amp to drive them?

I would consider the Parasound 2200 mk 2 as well. good sounding amp, which has tons of current for driving lower impedance speakers.
