best amp for a Maggy 1.7i


I am looking for the most detailed amp for a 1.7i under $1,500.

The amp will be between the 1.7i and a Topping d70s. I use the d70s to control the volume.

The d70s is fed by a Bluesound Node. Or, sometimes, directly by a CD player.

I have a fetish for detail.

I’m thinking NAD 268.

Currently using a B&K EX-442 Sonata and not satisfied.

I've had good results with a Class D Hypex based amp, the March Audio P502 (discontinued), driving my MMGs.  It puts out 500W per channel and enough current with I believe 27A.  I think the NC502MP module is a good match, so offerings from VTV, Audiophonics, or Buckeye Amps should do nicely.  Even better is the NC1200 module, VTV offers a stereo version at under $1500.
