Magnepan 3.7 and Nuforce Reference 18

Hi, I need to power my Maggies 3.7 and I am looking for some advice.

I already have a Musical Fidelity Int Amp 500WPC @ 8 Ohms Dual Mono(@4 Ohms data has not been released).

I am considering buying Nuforce Reference 18 Class D Amp. Does anyone know if they will drive the Maggies 3.7 with full authority?

These amps have excellent reviews as far as sound quality is concerned, but I am not sure if they can compare to a 500WPC Class AB amp when driving the Maggies.

I am considering Class D as they can fit in my suitcase :-)

Thanks!!

Brrgrr,

Someone on another group said he put dryer fabric softener sheets under his Maggies, and that his cats wouldn't go near them.

If I were still a Maggie owner with worries about what my unsupervised kitty would do, I'd think about making something like a protective sandwich of Gatorfoam that could be quickly attached and removed with velcro tabs. The veneer fascia on the Gatorfoam gives it a less cheesy look than other alternatives I can think of and it's still lightweight.

I wouldn't dream of declawing a cat. Sorry, but it's cruel in my eyes.
I'll find a solution...maybe the repellant sprays...or a plastic covering....
Water bottle works well too...
