Amplification Recommendations For Magnepan .7


I am new at this and I am hoping I can get some good advice.  I listened to the Magnepan and fell in love with them.  I've been gearing up to buy them over the last three weeks.  I started reading about them online and I'm seeing that good, powerful amplification is very important to get them to really perform.  At the stereo store I know they were powered by a top flight amp.  So now I have to get an amp/preamp and DAC, integrated amp with DAC or with a separate DAC. I listen to Tidal a good deal.  

The problem is that my budget is limited to around $1200 so I don't know if that can make the cut to get something that can do the speakers justice.  I'm open to buying used.  I would be grateful for any recommendations.

This this is an old posting I realize but if anyone is still looking for a recommendation of an amp to use with the .7 Maggie's, any of the Balanced Audio Technology solid state amps are a wonderful match and hit the "sonic baseball" out of the park. The BAT amps have the current needed and are a great 4 ohm amp, just as Magnepan recommends.
