i use a pair of odyssey monoblocks with my mani 2's along with classe preamp and cd player. I have the upgraded monblocks (120,000 caps) and klaus from odyssey is making the extreme version of the monoblocks, which i have heard are also very good. with the monoblocks, i get a full range sound even at lower volumes, which is tough to do with a 85db sensitive speaker. i also made a change to shotgun biwiring using 2 sets of Discovery copper cable which made a big difference over a much thinner silver wire. right or wrong, I wanted less resistance getting the power to the speaker.
good luck
