anyone tried Jolida amps with Maggies?

I am going to get some Magnepan MMGs for my new house and was wondering if anyone had success with Jolida amps and this model. I would probably want to try the 502-B or 1501RC with the MMGS. Anyone have any advice on this combo? My room is 12' x 14' carpeted.

How many watts does your Jolida have and is a fairly high current design ?
I used to run my old 1.6's with a 45 watt CJ and thought it sounded great.

The 502-B is definately underpowered, but the 1501RC is a perfect match for the MMG's. It will drive them beyond 90 db without distortion in a carpeted room 16x22x10. Do a search on Audio Asylum.

If you like the Jolida sound through maggies, get an aragon instead. The aragon will put out enough power for the hungry maggies.
