ive ran khorns with a ton of mac gear,tube & solid state,the mac 1900's 55 wpc isnt going to drive them very well at all,55 wpc tubes maybee but i feel that the 1900 will be too weak to make the most of what a khorn has to offer.
at low levels the 1900 will do ok but when driven it will distort,even though khorns are ultra efficient when you run them with solid state amps the performance they give when teamed up with high power mac solid state gear is fantstic.
you didnt give us much info to go on,do you already own the khorns or the 1900 ? why the rush ? if you own khorns already there are a ton of better amps & recievers that will allow the speakers to give outstanding performance but im sure the 1900 wont cut the mustard.
both the mac 1900 & klipschorns are very old designs but the khorns are capable of being a world class speaker while the mac 1900 is just a tired old reciever & i would stay away from it if i were you.
im sure if you give us a better idea of what you intend to do & tell us a few things about your budget,preamp,musical tastes & current system that you intend to put the reciever & speakers into you will get some good advice.
