Considering an upgrade to a set of 3.6Rs, how much power do they really need? Any suggested choices? My musical preferences are acoustic jazz, female vocals, some light rock. Considering Magnum Dynalab 208 but I'm concerned about the power.
I have been through quite a few amps with the Maggies and settled on a 200 wpc, GAS Ampzilla II at the end of the day. I picked it up off ebay for $700.
I've sold several InnerSound ESL amps to Maggie 3.6 owners, who've been very happy with the combination. The InnerSound does something like 600 watts into the Maggies' 4-ohm load.
The Brystons are a pretty good option, Personally I went with BAT vk500, a very good match,I have similar musical tastes. Maggies require high current not just watts. Personally I'd love to find a high current tube amp but they tend to be big money-too big for me.
