What amplifier should I get with Mag 3.6?

I've heard Magnepan's with a Marsh A400 and it sounded pretty good. The A400 should be available well under your price threshold. I think Marsh is a very underrated brand.

On the high end of your price range, it's relatively rare but you might find an Innersound ESL 300 that is designed for planar and electrostat speakers. Or perhaps one of the older high-powered Musical Fidelity amps might work.

Pairing an amp with Maggie's is always about some kind of compromise. The mids and top sound amazing and bloom with tubes, but most tube amps can't control the bass. Pairing a powerful solid state amp with them controls the bottom and tightens them up overall, but you lose that tube magic that works so well with the Maggie mid/top end.

Im not to up on your PS 4.6 if its a tube preamp try it in the system and if it dosnt do the job there are a number of ARC preamps that will work for you and your buget. the ARC SP6A has sold for as cheap as 850. has phono stage the ARC LS-2B no phono stage 810.00 the ARC LS7 no phono 1000.

Last year, I sold my modified Aragon 3002 amp (300Wpc) to a fellow A'gon member to use driving his Maggies, and he is delighted with it. My 3002 was one of the newer models in the now discontinued line, but I suspect many of their amps would be a good match with Maggies. He said the Aragon just woke those Maggies right up.

Best of luck,
