Amp for Maggies


As I understand, Maggies do well (better) with high current amps. My first introduction to the speaker line was a friends IIb driven by a Quad 405. What other amps are considered to also be high current? Thanks Dave

In general higher powered class D amps are likely to work well with larger Maggies like the 3.6. Spectron Musician 3 series for example, or JRDG Continuum 500 should give you lots of authority, bass control and refinement. If you prefer a slightly cooler presentation, try the NuForce Ref 9 V2 instead. JRDG 501 will also give you lots of control, but may sound a little cooler than Nuforce without the addition of a pair of JRDG PC1 external AC2DC converters. Lower power digital amps like the JRDG 201 monos should probably be limited to the smaller Maggies like the 1.6s. . . they do run out of steam on the big 3.6s. Guido
