Chazzbo ask's "How much juice for Maggie 3.6's???"


Freind has a pair of denon stereo 150's bi-map laterally so if my guess is right he's feeding his new 3.6's with no more than about 225 wpc.I was thinking of lending him my Mesa Baron which tube and 150 wpc should be like 300 SS.He isn't of deep pockets so I was thinking to suggest an Adcom 5802 (if the quality control wasn't such problems with that company I'd feel better about that recomendation)or maye the 380 watt Rotel 1090 on the used market.I'm thinking in a decent size living room they need 300 plus.Any suggestions?

Dear Chazzbo,

I own the 1.6qr. I powered it with the Mcintosh MA6450 integrated rated at 100 @4ohms. I sold that and bought the Proceed amp 2 rated at 250 wps @4ohms. WOW! the power upgrade really made the maggies sing. Give them all the quality power you can. Hope this helps

Best Regards and Happy Listening,
Bennett
