Before you make up your mind you should really consider Classe'. I've been running Maagies for almost 20 years and I have found that Classe' gives you enough amps to move these speakers in the bass, real high end sound and at a price you can afford. If you buy a used CA 100 or 150 for around $550 to 900, you can get a match that will keep you up nights listening!
Maggie 1.6QR amplification questions
Sometimes I feel as though I'm abusing all of you, but I've got so much valuable feedback from all of you out there already, it would seem a waste not to tap into when needed.
Anyway, I'm "patiently" waiting for my Magnepan 1.6QR's to come in. In the meantime, I'd like to finalize my amplification situation for these speakers. With a budget of $1500 at the most, which ss stereo amp will be the best mate for these speakers. Currently have an Anthem MCA 20 which I really like. Is this a good match already or would one of the following be better.
Odyssey Stratos with upgraded caps, used Bryston 4B-SST, PS Audio HCA 2, or your suugestions please.
Thanks so much!
