Amp for nee LRS Maggies

Class d amps  are a great way to go if you don’t want to spend a bundle.  I am pleased with W4Sound.  Let’s not start the debate again however.  

Well for the $1500 budget you can get a pair if Vidars and run them as monoblocks. That is likely your best bang for the buck given the budget. You may be able to get them for less on the secondary market if you can find them. With the money you save get the Mike Powell Maggie instant upgrade which costs only about $79. Dig around and find another $270-$355 for MyeStands. You will be please at the difference. 

I have Mye stands for my 3.6s and expect to get them for the LRS speakers when the stands are available.

Anyone who has Maggies knows Mye stands are the cheapest tweak and bang for the buck in upgrades.

I’m definitely looking forward to hearing the LSR’s and I agree a pair of Vidars would be the perfect amount of power, but wouldn’t you also need a couple of subwoofers also?

Yep! I like Vandersteen subs if you can swing it, but a pair of SUB 3 are 5K. I like Rythmik's F12 aluminum sealed servo subs at a grand each for bang for the buck. I hear they mate well with Maggie's
