Anyone using a NAD M3 with Maggies?

I think the M3 has good reviews but perhaps NAD stepped into a price/product segment where they are not generally recognised?

I haven't heard the M3 with Maggies but I have used their C275BEE stereo amp with my 3.6's with excellent results. I now use the Cary 500 monoblocks and they are definitely better than the C275 but the sound with the NAD was still excellent. The NAD cost about $800 used; the used Carys were $3,400.

I kept the NAD and moved it upstairs; would most likely never sell it. It's an excellent performer.

Another option; watch for a used pair of Cary 500's. Buy them, test them out on the 1.6's and if you don't like the sound, resell on Audiogon. They dissappear quickly when they do show up used, that should tell you something.

Thanks for all the recommendations. I travelled to Toronto last week and bought a bryston 4b st. It arrived a couple of days ago and I hooked it up the maggies. All I can say is wow! A match made in heaven.

Thanks again

I actually did hear that combo and it was very good. I was interested in the Nad but they would not let me take it home so I moved on.
