You’ve left out a critical part of information. How important is 2-channel performance? That drives the whole recommendation.
Thoughts on 3 or 5 channel HT amp to drive Magnepan 1.7is and CCR speakers
I am upgrading my home theatre system (donating it to my son in law) and wanted to build a system around Magnepans
L/R 1.7s
Center CCR
I have a JL Audio Fathom F113 subwoofer
I have been told I will need significant power to drive the Maggies sufficiently.
any recommendations for a 3 or 5 channel amp, 5 channel HT SSP?
wattage?
love to hear some personal experiences
thanks

I have a totally separate all tube 2 channel system in another room So I am not envisioning this for 2 channel playback The HT system would incorporate an oppo 105 for blu ray / movie streaming and an Aurrender for music streaming. Some small bookshelf B&Ws in the back
this is for watching tv, concerts, streaming tidal
my current avr is the Arcam 350 - it sounds very warm |
Yeah, that’s why I asked. You can try a D-Sonic M3a amp and get 400wpc 5 channels for $2400 and get an in-home trial. I considered them for my 2-channel system (pre GaN) and they get great reviews so I’d think would be optimal in your sitch. I know @yysantabarbara has used them in an audio system so he could give you better feedback. But again, for an HT system, I think it’s a no brainer, especially for an HT situation https://www.d-sonic.com/amplifiers/
