Amp question for Maggies


I currently have an Audio Research D130 amp, was wondering has anyone tried or compared my current amp against Wyred 4 Sound amps, I was leaning towards trying the sx1000, or sti1000 amps. I know they are more powerful but would my Maggie 1.6qrs benefit from more power than I have or would it be a waste of time/money. I am a little curious as to sound quality be equal.

TIA

I have been bi-amping Magnepan 1.6QR’s with a Marchand tube electronic crossover (excellent) for some time now.  For the tweeters, I have used a VTL ST85 and a Carver 275.  I much prefer the Carver.  It is a very sweet little amp probably producing close to 90W.  For the woofers, I have used a Hafler 500, a Peachtree amp 500 and finally settled on a pair of Carver BB 350 monoblocks.  The monoblocks are incredible and I will keep them in place indefinitely though they do lack that nth degree of Solid State Slam.  I must say that the Peachtree delivers a whole lot of Bang ( and slam) for the Buck—I can’t really say anything negative about it!  
I just went from a PS Audio S300, which is similar in power to your D130, to a Bryston 4b SST2 for my 1.7is. The 500+ watts into 4 ohms, even at 90db average levels is quite noticeable. Transients are cleaner and more dynamic.

More power is better, or more like more current.

While the S300 is a fine sounding class D amp, the Bryston’s class AB with the added power is just better across the board.
If I still had maggies, on which I was using a W4S 250/500 MC amp, I would look at Underwood HiFis LSA Voyager GaN amp
That would be a great thread discussion
So many people just parrot what they've heard (which was likely parroted as well).
Having had 6 models of Maggies over the years, I can tell you a good 100 watt amp will be all you need.
I've used Odyssey stratos extreme's with maggies with great success. However, just got them upgraded to the latest Kismet Mono's, it's astonishingly good! Beats out C298 (purifi), and even the JC1!
