The old Onkyo would work, but not very well. A buddy of mine just tried this exercise with his and a pair of new Martin Logan EFXs. The Magnepans are even less stable than the M-Ls, so more current would be the way to go. Good luck & happy listening!
Vintage Onkyo integrated amp ?
I have a 80s era Onkyo A 8067 integrated amp laying around. Rated at 80/channel, owners manual states 4 ohm minimum. Wondering if this old beast would drive my Maggies 1.6 adequately. Only reason for asking is I may have to part with my ARC D130 and Classe CP 35 preamp as I may need to drum up extra $ for a new home we are buying. The vintage Onkyo is in near mint condition, never driven hard I currently use it for my B&W outdoor speakers. Any help appreciated.
