    You'll be fine. Their are a couple people that run Odyssey gear here...and they haven't complained to my knowledge.
    CTC BBQ Amplifier, Sonic Frontiers Line3 Pre-Amplifier and Wadia 581 SACD player. Speakers? Always changing but for now, Mission Argonauts I picked up for $50 bucks, mint.

    Although I do not personally own an Odyssey amp, I can tell you that they are on my short list of must own!
    I have talked to several people who own these amps...many run some pretty heavy loads too. All in all, I hear nothing but positive reviews. GO FOR IT!

    Someone more knowledgeable will chime in, but I think you need a common ground amp to power those SDAs...

    that may rule out those monoblock amps...

    I have an Odyssey Stratos amp that powers the fronts on my HT system. It's quite clearly the best SS amp I've owned.
    HT/2-channel Rig: Sony 50” LCD TV; Toshiba HD-A2 DVD player; Emotiva LMC-1 pre/pro; Rogue Audio M-120 monoblocks (modded); Placette RVC; Emotiva LPA-1 amp; Bada HD-22 tube CDP (modded); VMPS Tower II SE (fronts); DIY Clearwave Dynamic 4CC (center); Wharfedale Opus Tri-Surrounds (rear); and VMPS 215 sub

    Early has good ears, so the opinion is definetly solid.
