good amp for Maggies?

Having been a Maggie owner since 1979 and gone up the ladder with various models,I have found that any quality amp that doubles its power into 4 ohms has always worked well.Doubles is power,not merely increasing its power is what counts.All the above amps mentioned should make those babies sing.Would like to add that the older levinsons No.27/No.23/are superb amps for Magneplanars.Mate with a fine tube preamp and you should be in nirvana all day long.

Odyssey Stratos! Klaus is a great guy too so that's a bonus.

McCormack DNA-500, or down the money chain, DNA-225 used or a DNA-1DLX will work very well with Maggies.

Listen for yourself and you will hear......

I have had great luck with three amplifiers - an Audio Van Alstine 250 wpc FETvalve hybrid ampflifier (heavily modded, including bybees), Canary CA-160 tube monoblock amplifiers, and Tube Audio Design Hibachi monoblock amplifiers.

I was persuaded to try the tubed Canary monoblocks because I was under the belief that tubes don't sound good on maggies. That was clearly wrong as they sound wonderful driven by reasonably high power tube amplification - at least these tube amps (modded by Bob and Gary Backert at RHB Soundezign).

I had an Accurus amplifier that was modded with bybees and some power supply changes that sounded OK but not as good as those listed above.

My Rotel RB 1090 with 380 wpc @ 8 ohms and 700 wpc @ 4 ohms along with my Conrad Johnson PV-12A tube preamp make my 3.6 maggies really sing. The Rotel was very well reviewed years ago by Stereophile.
