3.6 Maggie owners input needed on amps...........

IMO you need 250 watts minimum with 300+ being better.
Some good amp choices here and some I would never use.
I like Classe, Bryston, Krell, Innersound, Threshold and Sunfire. Should be able to find some of these in your price range. Another option is a Rotel for now until you can afford the amp of your choice.
Tireguy, I have a 20K plus speaker systema and agree with you. I miss my Maggies and am thinking of selling and going back to them. They do somethings like no other. I think they are the best value in all of highend audio.

The Adcom 5802 that I currently have puts out 450wpc and it worked well with the 1.6's. The 3.6's are a different bread all together. Do you think that this Adcom amp would do justice to the 3.6's ? I know that Adcom isn't really a high line company like many of these others. Or should I not even bother with trying it and get something better right off the bat!

Zenieth- The adcom's have enough power to drive the 3.6's with aplomb. However they aren't the cleanest amps available and you will be able to tell more with the 3.6's then the 1.6's. I have a pair of modified GFA-565 mono's and they sound ok, but my BAT blows it out of the water. So if money's tight use the adcom and when you have enough to upgrade to the amp of your choice then you will hear a huge improvement again.

That sounds like a good plan Tireguy. I will have to shed more cash to step up to one of the Innersound,Bryston,or Spectron units. Gee what fun..........hahahahaha

Here is my recommendation :I own the predecessor 3.5 SE and partnered them with GRYPHON amps after a long search of try and error :ELEKTRA line,ORESTES lim.ed.;DM 100.Not the last word in bass response as you would from maggies expect,but the rest is absolutely fantastic.Buy the amps second hand,they are trouble free and out there.I really tried so much before maggies and Gryphon,but this is the way to go.Both are like the VERDIER turntable in a class of their own an worth the investment.Next year:maggie 20.1,a second DM 100 used,and thats the rest for my life.
