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.

Don't really have a fixed budget - I guess I'll try to keep it under 2K - but hopefully that includes a source, and I'm OK with buying something used as long as I expect it to be reliable. Amps first, though.

I checked out the Marantz, seems like a nice component, although my first impression of the brand is mid-fi, but that may be just preconception. I see lots of new names like Peachtree and Wyred 4 Sound, and I'm wondering how they do against stalwarts like Plinius and Simaudio Moon (used, obviously)? I'm not naturally inclined to buy Class D gear, although I understand it can be well executed and sound good with compatible components.

Thanks for the feedback - you are right about my post in planar circle, I was waiting for a response there when their server went down for several days. I've actually reived my speakers today, and don't have an amp for it yet. I was hoping to find something this week, since I'm traveling next week. I will look for some components this weekend based on what I've read here and my research, and will post back once I've had a chance to do some listening.
