Magnepan LRS+ and WiiM Amp

@jjss49 thanks. So in your view a class D amp with 100 wpc won’t work?

not all class d amps are the same, some are excellent (agd, atmasphere, mola) but some are lower tier budget models (like the bluesound and wiim combo units, nad, imo)

imo the latter camp is far from ideal to bring the best out of maggies, which need both tremendous drive capability, control and purity of tone/clarity up and down the range... the low end class d units are unable to supply what is needed (if they did the better makers wouldn’t have a market for their gear!!)

I am slightly conffused, you were running, at mininmum, 7K speakers (Qualio IQ) with 300 dollars amplifier (Wiim)?

@yyzsantabarbara  I just saw your Nov 2025 ad on the US Audio Mart, pending sale. I'm guessing a Santa Cruz Bullit? 

email me if the pending falls through. 

@m-db I am dropping off the CODA #16 amp tomorrow at the freight carrier. Great amp.

Today Doug Dale from CODA shipped out my CODA #11. I should get it in a day or 2. CODA is such a good company. I helped them out with my #11 so I gave me free labor and free shipping back to me.

@knock1 you are right. Some context might help. I have 3 systems at home.

#1

Eversolo DMPA6/ Dual 1219 (Denon DL103 Andy Kim modded) - Denon AU320 - Tisbury Domino-Sansui 441- Orangutan Bay and Omega J8

#2

Wiim Pro Plus/ Pioneer PL 570 (AT MM)-Schiit Mani-Technics SA 5150- Omega Junior 8 XRS. 

#3

WiiM Amp-Qualio IQ/ (now LRS+)

Ideally I wanted the Qualio to be in system 2 and the Junior 8 in system 3. But when you see the photos attached the room didn't have enough space for the IQs. Qualio Omega
