Read the copy in the link I provided (ignore the photo of another speaker) as it refers to the MTD "line" by the Italian designer all having truncated pyramid cabinets.   DeKay  
Willsenton R8 gets muddy When Too Much Sub Bass is Present
Try the 4 ohm taps as the manufacturer's spec is off. I don't judge by price (just sound - which is hugely dependent upon compatibility/synergy and proper setup). My computer system is a Sharp SD-EX111/Polk RT-15i combo that cost less than $100 ...

PS: Aside from trying it without the 85 (if you have not already) are you using the 4 ohm taps? Per measurement of the IV's, posted online, they average approx. 5 ohms (didn't see any phase angle data). What are your office speakers?   DeKay

Best Amplifier for LS3/5a
Don't know about bridging 306's, but on the cheap the "listed" 306 will get you going. If you like the sound have it refurbished. It's the last amp I tried with 15 ohm Roger's. I liked it and I am not a SS fan. Much better than the 303 I tried...
