Just my 2 cents. I've owned 2 pair of MMG's, 1.6's and most recently .7's (my faves). I've paired all with many different amps with various levels of results. Typically, typically the more clean current the better the sound. I drove the MMG's with a Rogue Sphinx (100 w/ch 8 ohm, 200 4/ohm) with wonderful results. The best amp I had for any Maggies was a Wyred4Sound SSi500 integrated. Will mega $$ amps sound better, in theory yes. However, you can drive MMG's without going broke.
MMGs
A year ago, I bought a pair of MMGs. In my 13x22 room, placement was a challenge but finally worked it out.
Speakers are powered by an Adcom GFA-555. The only source is a CD player through a passive pre-amp.
Now I have a little more to spend and would like thoughts on the following options:
1) Mye stands for the MMGs
2) The DWM panel with the MMGs (secondary question - can this panel be placed on a side wall perpendicular to the MMGs?)
3) 1.7s
Open to other out-of-the-box suggestions as well.
The goal is always to attain that Magnepan soundstage. Musical tastes are female vocalists, jazz, blues.
