Integrated Amp Suggestions for Dynaudio Contour 3.4LE


Just bought a floor model of these speakers at a good price. I currently have an NAD M3 Dual Mono integrated and would love to hear how I could do better. Any thoughts on what integrated would best pair with these speakers?

One other twist. I also own the Magnepan 1.7's. It would be great if I had an integrated amp that would sound great with both speakers. That may be a tall order and I am mainly concerned about driving the Dynaudios but just thought I would throw it out there.

Many thanks

I would like to keep it under $5,000. Under $4,000 even better but I am not sure where the quality/price cutoff points are.

Both recommendations have high quality transformers that will operate well with the loads of the Contours and Maggies.

I have heard similar Primaluna Prologue PL7 (70w Monos) with the Megnepan 1.7 (w/self powered sub) and thought it was a great combo.

Have not listened to the Contour, but the above referenced integrates are both highly rated and I think it would be worth your while to do a little research; maybe you have a Primaluna dealer in your area.

Also occasionally you may find either amp on the used market, usaudiomart or AG

Good luck
