The NAD may do an "adequate" job but you should be looking at more juice for those Maggies. I run a Bryston 4B-ST with my pair of 1.5's and IMHO its just enough. The B60 is not enough for that particular model and I would look at a minimum of 200 w/ch @ 4 ohms as a starting point - used Aragon, B&K, Classe and Bryston to name a few.
Is it too mismatched to pair Maggie 1.6 & NAD 370?
Hi,
I am thinking about getting a pair of Maggie 1.6s. I just order Music Hall CD-25 and in process of looking for a good amp to match them.
Would it be too mismatched to pair these Maggies with a NAD C370? Intergrated amp? The power of this amp seems to be enough for them, but I am not sure about the musical quality of the amp.
If it s a bad idea, could someone suggest a good matched amp for this system? I probably can afford around $500 to $1000 (the cheaper the better.). Either new or used is OK with me.
Is Bryston B60 too underpowered for them?
Thanks a lot.
