Magnepan LRS plus & Atma-Sphere digital amps


I was wondering if anyone was using the Atma-Sphere digital amps with the Magnepan LRS + speakers

I recently received my LRS + and I am completely blown away. Driving them with my little AGD Tempo Mk3 (200w > 4ohm). An amazing combination. I'm selling my Coda, KEF Reference, and Fynes.

Also using a KEF KC92 subwoofer and it integrated seamlessly. 

 

@markmuse: The LRS+ with a sub may be the amongst the very best values in hi-fi today. Too bad not everyone can accommodate dipole planar loudspeakers. But then not everyone likes them.

 

So....high and and $$$ amps for an entry level speaker. Silly. At least move to the 1.7.

LRS is a great speaker for smaller rooms than the 1.7 and you don't need high priced amps to drive them. You can easily go Class D or get used AB amps. 

 

The MG1.7i, like the LRS+, needs a sub (imo). @secretguy doesn’t like to hear it, but for about the same price as the 1.7i you can get the superior (imo) Eminent Technology LFT-8b. And it doesn't require a high current power amp.
