Has anyone ever tried some of the high end PA amps to run into an under powered reciever? These amps have really low distortion. The only problem is you have to deal with XLR out puts, which really isn't a problem at all. Crown makes some really nice amps.

    Even I remember seeing this discussion multiple times. F1's comments pretty much sums it all up, though.
