Jerrythenewcomer Unregistered guest | HI all, I need some help to pick a receiver or pre/pro + 5 channel amp to go with my maggie 1.6. Choices has been narrowed down to Outlaw 7500, Rotel RMB-1075, B & K reference 125 or a NAD receiver. Which way do you think I should go, which setup will benefit me most? My budget is rougly around 1.5k, I don't mind getting used amps. Any suggestions are welcome! |

However, for the best advice, wander over to the planar part of the forum of this website: www.audioasylum.com the guys there are 90% maggie users (myself included) and can advise you better than I can. I use MMG's, which don't have the power requirements nor the refinement of the 1.6 but here's my best advice... DON'T USE A RECIEVER WITH THOSE GREAT SPEAKERS!!! |

That being said, there are a number of people on the Outlaw forums running various Maggies off of their Outlaw amps and raving about the performance. Those amps certainly have the guts to make the Maggies do their thing. |
