Better SS amp than my Bryston?

I agree with Eldartford. I'm one of those that prefer my Maggie 1.6's because the woofer and tweeter share the same technology. They were reviewed by TAS as being a little soft in the top end, but I seemed to have solved that by rebuilding the crossover with better quality parts. They are so clean and delicate sounding now....

By the way, I drive them with an Aragon 8008BB and have no desire to change amps.

No. Respectfully, No.

You might be able to find a pair of used Clayton M100 monoblocks for near your price range. (The Clayton S40 stereo - at about half the price - might even work.) Many owners (including me) and listeners find their musicality (among other strengths) to be outstanding, and with 100 watts (into 8 ohms) of Class A power (for the monoblocks), current should not be a problem. I can also second the earlier respondent's recommendation of Classe CAM monoblocks; I'm familiar with the CAM-200s - they sound wonderful and are available used in your price range.

The guys on the Planar Asylum (MUG) would say Odyssey Xtreme monoblocks. This seems to maybe have replaced the Bryston as the new recommended amps for maggies.

Hi,

If you can find a used BEL 1001 Mk IV in that price range jump on it. It's got plenty of juice and will amaze you on a pair of Maggies. Seriously, it has no competition.
Cheers,
Michael
