Rogue Pharoah II

Hi folks,

A few months ago I picked up a pair of Magnepan 1.7i speakers from a kind soul who was downsizing his system. I’m looking for recommendations for a worthy amplifier to pair them with?
 

I’ve been down to the local audio store and heard them with the Rogue Sphinx and the Hegel 190, neither of which sounded particularly outstanding. I’m wondering if folks have tried pairing them with the more powerful Rogue Pharoah II? Would they be a good match for the Magnepan 1.7i’s, or even my older pair of Ohm Walsh 2000s? I’m intrigued by this amplifier.
 

Alternatively, what are some other amps people have paired with the Magnepans to and been wowed by?

 

Thanks!

@grekon39 thanks! Will look for a local dealer to audition them.

 

@mapman thanks! I’m wondering if I can negotiate a good deal on the amp with the local seller. Hopefully they’ll be willing to knock some $$ off the MSRP.
