Magnepan LRS+ and WiiM Amp

@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

Magnepans need as much current as you can feed them in my experience.  I have the LRS+ but I'm running a pair of Maraschino Cherry monos that can do around 800 watts at 2 ohms.  I wouldn't describe the LRS+ as "not clean up top" at all, they're a very nice speaker.

My experience with Magnepans was they need as much power as you can throw at them,  but not necessarily as much current as many.
