Mini Maggie Office System


Hello All - I'm waiting on delivery for a pair of mini maggies to setup in an office / near-field setup. I still need to get some electronics to go with this setup. I do know that Maggies enjoy quality amplification, and drink every spare watt they can get their hands on, but on the other hand, this is a near-field setup and won't be run too loud too often.

I'd be interested in experiences out there, since there hasn't been that much written out there that I can find about first hand experiences component matching the mini maggies, despite some glowing reviews.

I'd offer two other options within your price range...both very different.

1. Use a DAC with preamp features, like the wonderful Audiolab M-DAC, controlling a pair of Monarchy SM70 MKII mono-block amplifiers in fully balanced mode. The Amps can be bought new for $588 each if you email the company for factory direct price.

2. Get the Harman Kardon HK990 integrated amp and CD player combo. Currently on ebay for $1,600 for the pair ($3,300 retail). Probably the best HK has put out to date.

Different types of options, but both should easily drive your Maggie system, and both should sound wonderful. Hope this helps.
