Best Cheap Amps for Magneplanar Speakers


I want to drive some medium sized to large Maggies (1.7 or 3.7) with the cheapest possible amps that will still let them sound great.

I prefer monoblocks and by 'cheap' I mean a kilobuck or so, tho less would be fine too.  I do NOT want to spend 4 thou...

Not cheap not the cost of a house either Bryston makes some very good sounding reliable cost effective mono blocks to power just about every mag. The power packs also sound very good look into them. They should easily hide in the back somewhere if thats any concern at all.

You are using a Sunfire now? Why not pick up second one, and bridge them? 6-900 used.  Tough piece of equipment to beat especially on the secondary market. There is also a few things that can be done to them
to really make them shine. 600 watts @8ohms  if memory serves me correct.   
Yes, I just want to see what is out there to replace the Sunfire - building a candidate list.  I hear the caps go bad after 20 years too, and mine is about that old...

600 is not a huge discount on a new A23 which comes with a return privilege and warranty for about 300-400 more - you aren't the seller or his friend are you?
Hey Randy,

I don't think ebm is the seller or anything of the sort. Just feels that this would be a great amp for you and knows that one will go fast at that price. Kinda like the DR-8 that sold hours after I posted about it.

Not questioning your approach. It's your call to buy or not buy anything.

Best to you Randy,
Dave
