Tube Audio Design HIbachi-II amps with Maggie 1.6?


Has anyone had experience with Tube Audio Design's Hibachi-II 200W amps with Magnaplanar 1.6's? Paul G, the designer/builder says they work great. What do you think?

no flippen way!! do they output over 300 w at 4 ohms? SS amps with Maggies, unless you can pay up for some real tube power like VTL, ARC or a higher powered Rogue.

I have had tube amps eaten alive by Maggie 1.6r's when I had them.
I can't speak specifically to the Hibachi 2s or the 1.6s, but the original TAD Hibachis work very well with the MMGs. And these amps will -IIRC- put out close to 300 wpc @ 4 ohms.

BTW - These are SS amps. Old school class A/B, but definitely ss.

My bad, I have actually heard these amps with Vienna Beethoven's and they handled them very well. I didn't read the string correctly.
