Lyngdorf with Maggies

Hi all. Apologies if this has already been discussed.  I have a room that's too small and, other than adding carpet, doesn't lend itself to treatments. Wondering if anyone has experience running Maggies...in this case 1.6, with the Lyngdorf 2170. 
Any thoughts welcome.

The spec suggest it might be a little weak for 1.6s. I have a lot of listening time with 1.6s, I would recommend this:  Musical Fidelity | M6si Integrated Amplifier

I should rephrase. I'm not concerned about power, but rather how Room Perfect does with dipoles.

"...how Room Perfect does with dipoles..."

I can't answer that but I can ask you; "How do you work with Maggies? Can you pull them 6 feet out into the room? Can you put them where they need to be?  Can you feed them the power they need? What's your sub solution?

I own a 2170 and have owned a bunch of Maggies including the 1.6QR.  The Lyngdorf entered after the Maggies departed, so no actual experience with the two together.   I would have a concern about the Lyngdorf having enough power, but if you can make it work, I suspect it would be a lovely pairing.  I see no reason why Room Perfect would have issues with dipoles.  The program seems pretty adept at figuring out what the speakers are doing and adjusting accordingly.
