About to buy a Wyred4Sound 1000 Watt Integrated

I'm about to pull the trigger on a Wyred4Sound 1000 WPC Integrated to drive a pair of 20.7 Magnepans.
Why should I or should I not, do this???

The Maggies will benefit from the power. No good reason not to if you think the amp fits your needs overall. Wyred are good quality and value products. I wish I still had my Maggies to try with my current 500w/ch Class D amps (Bel Canto, Icepower similar to Wyred). These are the best amps overall I have ever owned.

The 500WPC is a dual mono config I believe. So the essence of that is already there. My only concern was the 'voicing' of the amp/preamp--and from what I read, it's very detailed without being too etched. Of course reviews can be fools gold, we tend to read the comments selectively, seeking out that which agrees with our needs. Thanks to Mapman too. Bel Canto deserves a look too, I suppose. Larry
