Maggie 3.6R driven by Antique Sound labHurricane??


I recently purchased a pair of maggies 3.6R and will be using the Njoe Tjoeb cd player. I own a pair of modified Outalw 200 monoblocks and I am considering the purchase of the Antique Sound lab Hurricane power amplifier . Are there any other tube amp options I should consider and has any body driven their maggies with the Hurricane? I will appreciate advise especially because my location prevents me from auditioning equipment.

Thanks Muata

Like Hartwerger, I'm driving a pair of 3.6R's with tube amps with less than Herculean output. (150 watt c-j's) One big issue that you should be aware of is how loud do you listen? Buy a Radio Shack sound meter. Use it to determine the highest volume level you usually listen at. Remember that the Maggies will output 83db at 1 watt. 100 watts will get you about 103db max for example. The loudest I have had mine is about 98db, so I've got some cushion.
