Magnepan 1.7 i - Amp suggestions

I use a Rogue Pharoah (Class D / tube preamp) hybrid integrated to drive my Magnepan .7s.  Great combo.  Plenty of power.

I have Maggie 1.7s and +1 Rogue Pharaoh is a good choice. I ran a Pharaoh it was a good combo. But then I upgraded to a Prima Luna Dialogue Premium. As good as the Pharaoh is, the Prima Luna is a distinct upgrade. Magical and plenty of current for the Maggie’s if you incorporate a Subwoofer. I had a Rel sub, switched to a PSB subwoofer and actually prefer it better than the Rel. Good luck & have fun!

Had the 1.7s...loved them... So did my wife... But moved and space and config changed. You truly do need lots of good power. I ran them very nicely with a higher power musical fidelity and BAT integrated. Respectfully, I would not do a Primaluna integrated... Great stuff and great sounding (I had the monoblocks).. But not enough power in my opinion.

If I were to do it today... I would Def consider the ps audio M700 monoblocks... If not those... Some very powerful tube amp (generally more expensive)... or a nice solid state amp/integrated. (yes a hybrid OK too... I liked the pharaoh). 

Don’t be fooled that the power is only necessary to listen at high volume... Not so... You need an amp to drive those with authority... To get the best out of them.
