ConradJohnson: Tubes or S/State for Maggies.


I have a CJ Premier 10 (Tube) pre amp that I am getting serviced by CJ factory and a pair of Maggie MG IIIA's that are at Magnepan getting rebuilt. I got these both locally and haven't really listened much up till now. They needed work.
All I need is a power amp to drive this second system.
I am looking at the CJ Premier 11A or the newer 2500 solid state. I want to stay with CJ stuff as this is in our living room and the WAF for componants is important (cant believe she has agreed to the Maggies!).
Room is a resonable 16*18, 8ft ceilings, mostly classical, jazz. CD player will be either a Naim CD5 or a Linn Genki, depending which sounds best. Cables will be purchased in the next week or two.
I have no CJ dealer locally, so any experience or insights from Agon members???

Thanks
Peter

Steelhead,
I have an 11A and wasn't aware you could use KT90's in it. How would the sound be different from Svetlana 6550's and would any modification be needed?
