Magnepan 1.7 i - Amp suggestions


Dear Amigos !

Once again thank you for all your Help last time helping me to decide on some Speakers ! Very valuable !

I finally did get the Magnepan´s 1.7. With the kind help from Peru´s Magnepan Distributor I had them built at the Magnepan Factory and shipped directly to Santiago, CHILE.

They are sitting in my music room !!

Now I need to put them into working status...very eager !

Could you please help me with some Amp alternatives ? to drive them .

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

Robert

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.

Hello Elizabeth & other Friends, thank you for your suggestions.

My money number is around USD 2.000 - USD 3.000.

FG High End is a good dealer but pricey.

Another alternative is: Music World -  https://www.musicworld.cl/

Are Bryston, any good ?

Thanks for your help !
Bryston makes some very nice equipment... And has models with the power you need. 
Bryston and Magnepan are like peanut butter and jelly.  OK corny but true.   A bit pricey for used but maybe just buy an old 4B from on here they are out of warranty then you are in your price range.  I would also buy that used BP26 and MPS2 because at 1600 bucks you need those.  Hell yeah Bryston is great gear.  Who else does a 20 year warranty?  Better yet they are great folks too and willing to chat about their gear which is always nice if you feel like chatting.  Buy buy buy
