Suggestions for econo system


Trying to put together an economical system for a friend with as much bang for the buck as possible, based around Maggie MMG's. Room is 22x14x8. Would prefer receiver/integrated amp and single box cdp. Total price $1500 or less ( I said economical) with the Maggies $550. Considering NAD C-350 int. amp and various cdp's. Any and all suggestions welcome. Thanks, Mark

Appreciate the comments. I've scanned the Planer Asylum and noted comments of some MMG owners driving them with the 340 with specific comments re no lack of dynamics and power. The 350 has 10W more than the older 340, and is cheaper than the 370, ergo my initial interest in it as opposed to the 370. Any experience contrary to the above comments?
Many thanks to the above comments. I'm awaiting delivery on the MMG's, NAD 370 and an Arcam 7se. When I get it all in I'll set it up at my friends place and let you know what it sounds like. I think it'll be quite good, I think I'm more excited than my friend, a non-audiophile. Thanks to Fineberg for the Arcam suggestion, found one on A'gon and it did indeed free up a couple of bucks for IC/SC's. My friend can always upgrade cdp at a later date as funds allow. Mark
BTW, any recommendations on IC's and SC's with this combo? Apparently the Maggies require bananna's. Thanks, Mark
