Magnepan-how much push/pull tube power needed


Will my 40 wpc el34 push/pull tube amp drive a pair of maggies? if not, how would bi-amping sound with the el34 for top end and solid state for bottom end, and also probably adding a sub to the mix. what is the best way to do this? i'd like to keep my el34 tube sound with the maggies. thanks for the help.......

warren, i hear ya. just getting opinions man. these maggies are for a 2nd system. not even sure i want them. have heard them, liked them alot, but also think they could be fatigueing. but for a 2nd system and in short listening sessions, they could be the ticket-with the right amplification. and i probably will get the mmg's and run them with my gear, hoping they will sound fine. but alot of people seem to doubt it. thanks
the room is small. and this is definitely not gonna be background music. not sure what gave anyone that idea. will be normal listening levels. looks like i will bag the idea of running maggies with my amp. i guess maggies will have to wait until i can afford a high powered ss integrated. thanks to everyone for the input. kinda bummed tho
