Maggies with Mark Levinson preamp/amp

Hello! I am putting together my first hi-fi system and planning to go with a pair of Magnepan 1.6QR for speakers.

For amps, I have a Mark Levinson No.26 preamp and No.23.5 amp.

Searching around the web, I don't find many feedbacks on how Maggies sound thru Mark Levinson amps.

I would appreciate very much if anyone could share their experiences on the Magnepan-Mark Levinson combination, in particular, the 26 & 23.5 setup.

Any recommendations on speaker cables and interconnects?

Thanks in advance.

I have a pair of Tympani IVa's which I power with a 23.5, following feedback from the Magnepan factory that it was one of the "best amps ever" through the Tympanis.

So I dont know how you could go wrong with the 1.6's. Too dark definitely won't be a problem, IMO.

If anything you might find all but the best digital sources to be a bit bright.

Good luck.
