Heard Maggie 3.7i with..

...a Rogue Cronus Magnum driving them. The combo sounded surprisingly great. I was surprised that a 100 wpc amp could drive them so well. Anyone else have experience with "low" powered amps and Maggies. When I've had Maggies, I've always had amps in the 150 to 250 (8 ohms) range.  Though I now have Golden Ear Triton1s, I think I will eventually have Maggies again. I've heard the Cronus with T1 and it's also a great combo. 

I guess the point of all this is that while I generally believe you should choose speakers first and then choose the amp to drive them, I'm thinking of getting the Rogue now and the Maggies in the future. Mistake? Thoughts?

There are two sensible routes:

1.  Listening habits>room acoustics>speakers>amplification

2.  Decor>listening habits>speakers>amplification

I am not a fan of route 2, but I will hazard a guess most purchasing decisions follow that progression.

So much for the op’s question. This turned out to be another mc v. Others discussion. We all like what we like because it’s subjective. Let’s just agree we all like music and all have different hearing.
