Default Magneplanar 1.6 QR speakers

A couple of things about Maggies - they were my system speakers for a few
years. First, you don't need mega power amps unless you have a big room - I
used to listen to mine in a smallish room with a 10wpc valve amp (Leak Stereo
20). People will tell you 100 watts, 200 watts etc - that's 'american talk' -
people with huge rooms. Second, people will tell you solid state only, but many
of us were happy with valves, and so might you be if that's your taste. For a
valve amp, the Maggies were quite easy to drive - I used the 4 ohms setting on
my OPT. good luck - Andy
