Ok, back again with an age old issue. Been running my MMG's with my McIntosh MA 6200 integrated. There were differing opinions on whether this is "enough" amp to truly do justice to the MMG's. I added a terrific little Emotiva Ultra 10 sub that is filling the bottom end better than expected. As my girlfriend likes to rock out on occasion, we did crank the volume a bit and got the Power Guard lights to blink. Maybe the 100 w/ch rating isn't enough horsepower? This concerned me a bit. It was suggested that adding a second sub might be a solution. The other is "more" amp. What would offer the most bang for the buck? I know there are many variables to consider but experiences and input are appreciated.
