Magnepan 1.7 i - Amp suggestions

Dear Amigos !

Once again thank you for all your Help last time helping me to decide on some Speakers ! Very valuable !

I finally did get the Magnepan´s 1.7. With the kind help from Peru´s Magnepan Distributor I had them built at the Magnepan Factory and shipped directly to Santiago, CHILE.

They are sitting in my music room !!

Now I need to put them into working status...very eager !

Could you please help me with some Amp alternatives ? to drive them .

Thank you in advance,

Best regards,

Robert

Hello Elizabeth & other Friends, thank you for your suggestions.

My money number is around USD 2.000 - USD 3.000.

FG High End is a good dealer but pricey.

Another alternative is: Music World -  https://www.musicworld.cl/

Are Bryston, any good ?

Thanks for your help !

Bryston makes some very nice equipment... And has models with the power you need.

Bryston and Magnepan are like peanut butter and jelly.  OK corny but true.   A bit pricey for used but maybe just buy an old 4B from on here they are out of warranty then you are in your price range.  I would also buy that used BP26 and MPS2 because at 1600 bucks you need those.  Hell yeah Bryston is great gear.  Who else does a 20 year warranty?  Better yet they are great folks too and willing to chat about their gear which is always nice if you feel like chatting.  Buy buy buy

Oh and BTW the 4BSST and the BP20 and MPS1 I am using in my second system with these LRS is kick butt.  Rock and roll the bass is back but you gotta know how to place them and frankly I do.  I got the Mag fever and I know the cure.

This Van Alstine 400R would be a good fit with the Maggies!
