Krell, Classe or Bryston?

I recently bought a pair of Magnepan MG 3.6rs and am looking for an amp for them. I would like monoblocks if possible. I recently heard the Classe Cam 350 monoblocks with my speakers and it sounded ok. But I've heard great things about the Bryston with Magnepans and the reputation of the Krells(?) seems intriguing. So what do the Maggie owners(and others) think? Or is there a better choice out there?

I think there are many good choices out there but if I had to pick one I would suggest that you try out a pair of Bryston 7BST monoblocks. These coupled with a nice tube preamp would do the 3.6s justice...

Bryston work very well.There is a dealer in town who carries Classe,Bryston Maggies.The Brystons sound best.Krell is a waste of time.Dont waste your time.Overpriced over hyped.And then you will spend thousands on cables to fix their flaws.

The recent Stereophile reviews the Classes you mention (I believe) driving the Maggies you mention with astonishing results - you might be interested in reading the reviewer's experiences.
