Are benchmark and Maggie 1.6 a good combination?

I am going to upgrade my speaker to Maggie 1.6, and I want to know if the Benchmark DAC1 is a good company for Maggie 1.6? Thanks for your input?

They will be fine with the Benchmark DAC, however you might want to consider the Bel Canto DAC II, I have heard both DACS with the MG 1.6's and found that the Bel Canto had everything the Benchmark had plus more warmth/smoothness to my ear's, either way you can't go wrong. Have fun!
