Inexpensive amp for a McIntosh C46 Preamp

I have been jones'n for MA6900 Integrated, however when I went to a local dealer, I fell in love with the C46 pre. I can't afford to get the MC252 at the moment, so I was wondering if I could mate it with a cheap amp, perhaps a used NAD272 or something like it. Any suggestions? Is this a bad idea? Should I stick with the MA6900?

Thanks

Thanks for everyone's advice.

Arthur, that is great advice, thanks. Have you, by chance, had a chance to a/b the C46 and the C220?

Thanks

Arthur,

Disregard my question about the C220 - I see that you responded to my other thread.

Thanks,

Steve

Thanks for everyone's suggestions. I just bought a MC162. Hopefully, it will work well. Thanks again.
