I was using my Aragon 8008BB to drive my Maggy 1.7i with excellent results. It's a dual mono amp that is very high current. 200 watts at 8 Ohms & 400 watts at 4 Ohms which the Maggie's is rated at. I got the upgrade bug & bought a PS Audio BHK 250. While it's amazing with the Maggie's the Aragon holds it's own. I'm selling mine for $900 + actual shipping costs. The Aragons are built to military spec & last forever. A truly iconic amp at that price point & have stellar reviews.
Recommendation for used Amp to power Magnepan 1.6
I am searching for a used Solid state amp to drive my Magnepan 1.6 speakers. The amp will be paired with 20 year old Sonic Frontiers tube pre-amp. Have been using 40 w tube amps. Want to keep the price below $1000.00. I am considering a Belles 150a Hot Rod amp. Not sure if it has the power to drive my 86 dB maggies.
I would appreciate any feed back.
