Magnepan 3.7i amp pairing

Hi folks,

I’m on the verge of springing for Magnepan 3.7i, despite their drawbacks: power-hungry; hard to place off the wall; size; etc.  

I listened to them via Rogue Audio monoblocks, which I can’t afford, but I’m being told that the Rogue Audio DragoN Amp and Rogue RP-5 v.2 pre-amp is a sufficient combination to drive the 3.7s.  No doubt my current Rotel 1572 integrated amp is not enough.  Will probably add, later, two subwoofers beyond the current JL Audio 110, perhaps RELs.

 

Thoughts, when time allows?

Many thanks,

paul

What you need to do is grab an amp from Class D Audio to drive them until you can detetmine what you need. You can get one for $600-$700, or so, which will drive them very well, until you complete your search.

I’m using the SDS 370 which drives my new LRS+ about as well as they can be driven - and the sound is sublime - in all respects. And it only cost me $700 - new! It has all the power you need. And will let you enjoy them at their best until you decide what to do.

Or - just go directly to the Sanders Magtech!
