Never saw any indication of clipping with any amp I owned but if the solution was buy a bigger amp, I did the right thing. What I really wanted to do was go outboard XO and stereo subs but I could not get a handle on a combination that worked and I could afford. Nice system by the way!
Follow Ups:
I'm not that familiar with Mark Levinson equipment. What's the power output for the 332 into 4 ohms.
Be-Bop and Mahler
400watts continuous into 4ohms
I have been thinking about picking up another Bryston B-10 Sub XO and integrating a pair of stereo subs as well, but haven't found any I like yet.

Hi Mart,I am not familiar with this speaker. I searched the web and found a Totem Lightning, is this the same thing? Any info or pointers ???
Thanks,
Tim
It's purported to be the Lightning with a beefier amp & twin passive-radiators on either side of the active radiator all to extend bass response. Since it is new, no one knows about it. Therefore, it is easier to get than the revered Lightning.

Mart,How can it be easier to get, if you can't find it anywhere ???
I searched the web and only found references to it on the Asylumn. Do you know the specs and cost or have a URL for it?
How is it suppose to compare against Rel or Sunfire? Is it targeted at home theater or music or both?
Lightning is all music but hasn't the extension for HT. As such, Totem is thinking that the Thunder may be the 5-channel music sub. Anyhow, the only thing I noticed was cone break-up when trying to couple with some Aeros (4" woofers). However, no Maggie owner would XO that high.My Totem dealer has Thunders but no Lightnings. Across the street is the Maggie dealership. Now, since I'm not in the sub market, I can't ethically home audition.
