3.6 Maggie owners input needed on amps...........


I just ordered a new pair of 3.6's to replace my 1.6's. I'm currently using an Adcom GFA-5802 amp and would like to upgrade for the new 3.6's. I also use the GFP-750 preamp. What works with your 3.6's? My budget for an amp is in the 1500/2000 range new or used. This quest because of my lack of knowledge needs expert advice. Thank you and it's graetly appreciated too!

I auditioned the 3.6's with my Classe CA-200 and that combination worked just fine - ie, 200 wpc (well, I guess it's really 400 wpc @ 4 ohms) is quite sufficient. There are plenty of amps that can do the job. The CA200s usually go for around $1200-$1400 here on the 'Gon, and even CA300s are usually under $2000.

I originally heard the 3.6's with a CJ MV55 - definitely, definitely not enough power, although any time it didn't run out of power that was one sweet setup.
