Hi, since you have MMGs, they will somewhat limit you in your choices. You need an amp that is stable at 4 ohm and is capable of delivering high current and, at least, 50 W/ch. Why not stay with NAD, it's proven robust. Nad 352 with 80w/ch or Nad 372 with 120W/ch (both at 8 Ohms ,and that almost doubles at 4 Ohms) are within your price range, new or used, or their 'amp only' versions - I don't remember model numbers right now.
I never heard it, but there's Jolida amp with 100w/ch, with tube preamp and SS amp, which might be an interesting choice too. In my experience, Rotel SS amps are too bright with Magnepans. Marantz PM-7200 is in the price range, but I don't think it's a good match to MMGs. Cambridge Azur 640A might be worth trying also. -- slimkid ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimkid's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=8881 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=31843 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
