Can a channel on an Anthem MCA 50 handle a large passive SUB?

CANTON A45 45th Anniversary Limited Edition Speaker
I'm debating on pulling the trigger on the 820.2 or going all in with the A45 BS (which is supposed to be very close to their Reference 9k offering - same drivers, different box). I really shouldn't be shopping for more speakers, but I'm super curious to hear the Canton ceramic tweeter and see...

CANTON A45 45th Anniversary Limited Edition Speaker
Doesn't the A45 basically use the same drivers (and tweeter) as the Reference k series, in a different enclosure? I think the tweeter is probably the same (or better) than the Vento 820.2, which is already apparently better than the one used in the 9.2 dc?!

EMP E41-B for $209
I know this is a REALLY old thread, but if anyone still has their E41-B's and are looking to part with them, please hit me up. I already bought a pair from Fuzz, and am looking to set more up for a 3.1 or 5.1 system. Thanks

WTB EMP E41-B speakers
If anyone still has a set of the "B's" with the beryllium woofers laying around , please let me know. I know they were closed out in 2013, so pickins may be slim, but just just putting it out there. Thanks

How to best integrate new amp into setup
Any chance you would know if bass management is disabled in "pure direct" mode? I would assume so, but some forum digging found that some say yes and others say no.

How to best integrate new amp into setup
Thanks for the advice guys. Sounds like the DAC section in the Z9 may rival the Stoner DAC. I'm wondering if I could improve things by adding something like this between the PC and receiver though...

Anyone know for sure what the specified impedance on the vs05's are? I'm getting a new receiver that needs to be set differently for 6ohm loads.

Why do I enjoy listening to my car's stock speakers more than $2000 bookshelves???
No EQ with either one. Zieglj turned me on to enjoy listening to non-EQ'd sources with good speakers. Perhaps I can be more specific about my comparisons: 1. The music (specifically classical) in my impala sounds enveloping and effortless. Piano, strings, vocals are soft and soothing...
