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.

Plenty of current, plenty of power for a room that's an appropriate size for the 1.7s. On the other hand, I've had folks recommend the Crown 300A with a recap job for the 1.5 and 1.6 Maggies. My Vidars should be in service with my 1.6 QRs soon.
