agree with some of the post here on needing a ss amp with power. if you want a warm sounding amp that would sound very good for the money you can not beat B&K amps. a st140 is a good start but a st 202 and up would be better. the amps are available for $250 ---&400 on the used market.. very cheep for what they can do in sound quality. odyssey audio are very good also but $1,000 is not going to get you one unless you find a stereo model. an adcom 5500 would be another amp that would give you all the power and volume you want. they are for sale all the time and you can get one for $400 and up very easy. so there you go, amps with plenty of power and very affordable and would sound great with your speakers.
Dynaco ST-70 and Magneplanar 1.6QR
Hi,
I just got into this with an entry level system consisting of Magnapan 1.6 and a dyna st 70. I love the sound, and they work fine together ,but I dont get enough gain out of the Dynaco. Should I be getting more?, if not, is there anything I can do, short of swithcing amps that would solve this issue?
If not , do you have any $1000 amp or less alternatives to recomend?
Very grateful for any advice in this matter.
