Yes, while the RP-8000F has an RMS of 150W per channel into 8 ohms, giving it extra power will increase the clarity at lower volumes. Be careful not to turn the monolith up too much, since it has the potential to blow the drivers.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
Peak power handling per speaker is 600 watts. So being at less than half of the peak watt rating you should be okay. Probably wouldn't want to keep the volume maxed out for hours without some sort of cool down time. Just in case I'm miss understanding you, "monolith" is mono-block right? Like one amp for each channel? That's how I'm seeing this.

Sure, but remember per their specs the Power Handling is rated 150 Continuous/ 600w Peak. You do have a very powerful amp, but do you really need to crank it to 11? I would just keep it under 66% volume level and let the amp relax and produce a super clean sound.
