Maggie Fans Chime in: Need recommendation for amp to drive Maggies (MMGs and 1.7i)

Hi All,

I blew up my work horse amp (Anthem MCA 20) and need recommendations for an amplifier which will drive my 1.7i's. I listen to a lot of Jazz, Funk, some EDM, rock, and occasionally classical. My budget is < $1000. I am happy with used gear from here or other markets. Looking for something reliable and rock solid. 

Any thoughts from Y'all Maggie fans is much appreciated.

I have an Odyssey Khartago and I agree it was a little underpowered and ran hot with my 1.7s.   I am looking at Class D Audio out of California. They may be what you and I are looking for.
The class d folks here seem to be quiet lately.

Thanks mcreyn
I use a Wyred4sound 1000mkii stereo for my second rig and like it.  It is my first step into class d, but is above the budget for the op and my daughter.  Class D Audio presents good numbers in their specs, but I have not received any feedback from owner/users.  Perhaps a Schmitt vidar is a better choice.
