Classe 300 or Innersound Esl amp. for Maggie 3.5s?


After much research I have narrowed down my decision to the Classe 300 or Innersound amp. Help me decide which will bring out the full boogie in my new used maggies.

Currently I have 2 NAD 2600 amps that either clip or blow a fusse when playing rock music pretty loud. Love the Maggies and play about 60% rock.
Will look to purchase another amp down the road but one nice amp will have to do for a year.

Current preamp is an Adcom 555II that will soon be a BATVK3I or CJ 14?

After that money is shot.

Help me decide please I need the last bit of encouragement to pull the trigger.

Added thoughts are ok to if you think from experince I could do better for the same $ range.

Thank all of you for your help on Audiogon, I would have never been able to purchase and Drive my dream Maggies without this sight. It has made turning 40 year OLD fun lately.

While I respect both of your choices, I put my money on the McCormack DNA-2 for my 3.6's. No regrets.
I should expand a bit on my first response. The maggie dealer where I purchased mine is a Classe dealer and I thought they sounded good together. If my choices were limited to the two you are considering it would be the Innersound. Not only is there the 30 day trial, I think they refund shipping too. That is a good indicator they don't expect many returns.
The fact it doubles output wattage, 300w to 600w from 8 to 4 ohms is another thing I would look for in an amp. You will also have a new amp warranty compared to buying a used one.
What power cord do you plan to use with your new amp?
