There are very few audiophile quality speakers, DIY or other wise, that aren't 4 ohms or close to it. Receivers typically can't handle less than 6 ohms except at low volumes and the "real" watts per channel drops greatly with all channels driven.
Watch the used market for older quality 2-channel amps and buy what you need for your system or go to the Emotiva/Outlaw buy/sell forums and see who has the upgrade sickness for good deals on nearly new equipment, much of which under warranty.
BTW, I read a blurb that Emotiva is introducing a new line of Generation 3 amps that are not A/B design. They just lost my recommendation. :cry:
