Modern amp solution for Magnepan 2.7QRs with bluetooth and phono stage interfaces?


Time for a new amp. 

Magnepan recommends high current, 4 ohm, class A/B amp that comes close to doubling output from 8 to 4 ohms. I would indeed like to keep hearing the full dynamic range with full bass capabilities.

24x18 room with 9’ ceilings, so moderate power should suffice.  Perhaps 100 into 8 ohms and 200 ish into 4.

Is there a list of recommended amps for maggies? 

Recommended units or additional components with phono stage and modern streaming interface?
New (ish)  preferred, but my mind is open. 

Thanks,Grokkin

If you get separates, which often work better with Magnaplanars, then what you need would be a power amp for the speakers, and the bluetooth and phono functions could be handled at the preamp level. But any preamp would do fine if a bluetooth receiver is used (they are inexpensive). You would then apply its outputs to one of the line level inputs of the preamp.
