How about Parasound for H/T with Magnepan fronts and rear (no center or sub yet)? Also looking at Classe, Bryston and Mccormack. 25x10x8 basement room w/carpet.

I recently bought the AVC2500 processor and 105 140/ch amp from Parasound and have been please with the sound. However, I am driving the Monitor Silver 7i Series speaker that are very efficient. With Maggies you might try listening to the 2205 amp that's 220/ch x5. I have heard the Bryston 5 channel amp is superb, but have not had a chance to hear it yet. A friend has the 3B-ST stereo amp and it sounds okay. Associated equipment is important with Bryston as it can sound Bright. In CAnada they sometimes refer to Bryston as Brightston.
