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!

There have been a few threads on this subject so search the archives. But to recap quickly in your price range look into getting the best bryston you can afford or a pre-owned Innersound ESL300, I would lean towards the innersound.

BTW the 3.6's are fantastic speakers, having owned much more expensive speakers I find it amazing how much I love my 3.6's They are truly the music lovers speaker.

Zenieth- The adcom's have enough power to drive the 3.6's with aplomb. However they aren't the cleanest amps available and you will be able to tell more with the 3.6's then the 1.6's. I have a pair of modified GFA-565 mono's and they sound ok, but my BAT blows it out of the water. So if money's tight use the adcom and when you have enough to upgrade to the amp of your choice then you will hear a huge improvement again.
