Or, I might part with my Sunfire amp...
It will run 1 Ohm all day long.

you can always safely connect the speakers in series creating a 16 Ohm load. Not advisable though if it happens to be a tube amp. Running a tube output stage with higher than specified load can result in increased dissipation in the tubes.

TwinCity, I have two (a Stereo and a Cinema Grand) and I wouldn't part with them for anything.

OK, I'll admit to lusting after some nice amps for my Stages. All my budget allowed was an Adcom, though.

Larry -
I know what you mean. I wouldn't consider it if my F-81 STAX Electrostatic speakers didn't "arc out" last year. Some connections to the sound panels suddenly began to sizzle while producing bright purple arcs. That was the strangest (and saddest) thing I've seen for a while. Glad it didn't hurt my Sunfire. I wish I could find repair info for them. They were built in Germany.
