Thoughts on using Mcintosh MC352 amp with Magnepan 1.7 speakers


I am able to get a pristine McIntosh MC352 amp for a good deal. I currently have Magnepan 1.7 speakers.
I have a couple of questions:
1) Thoughts on the McIntosh MC352 amplifier (good, bad)
2) Do you think it will be a good pairing with the Maggie 1.7 speakers?

Don't know if this is of any help, but:
I was reading about the 20.7s matched with MC452 on another forum and the poster loved it. 
So perhaps the MC352 would be sufficient for your smaller Maggies...
(keep in mind that Maggies are capable of matching with much more powerfull amps, and though a lot of folks rave a lot about hundreds or even thousands of watts through them, many are also happy with much less power...)
the key is if you'd like the nature of the sound of the Mcintosh, and that being a very personal matter only you'd be able to answer it for yourself by listening to them...
(Don't think I'm allowed to put the link to the other forum here, but if you want I can pm you)
