Best Amp for Magnepan 1.7?

I own Maggie’s (3.6) and I went through a number of amps and once I put Mac 501s in the system the search was over for me.

I will not disparage the other amps as I believe in synergy between the components and Maggie’s, Mac SS amp and a tube pre amp are the sweet spot for me.

I recommend trying McIntosh.  FYI, I bought my 501s 10 years ago and can still get all my money back in a sale, not that you could pry them loose from me, LOL.

If you have the scratch get Pass monos that fit your budget and power requirements!

I ran my 1.7s for years with a Krell 2ch power amp, then I bought a Bryston 4BSST cause at the time that’s what Magnepan was using in their demo rooms. There will come a day when I’ll most likely upgrade to a Bryston Cubed amp.
