I had Rogue Magnum 120 with my Maggie 1.6 and they were underpowered, in a comparison with a Levinson 383 integrated and also an Innersound ESL amp the Rogue was washed out and dull (but sound nice otherwise). I finally concluded that you really do need tons of power to drive the Maggies and ended up with a Plinius SA100 MKIII power amp because I did not have the money to drive them with tubes.
I now have high efficency Audio Note gear because I got sick of chasing my tail trying to power the Maggies which are great speakers but I could not afford a QUALITY amp.
