I drove my Triton 1 speakers with a Rogue Cronus Magnum for a year and found the sound to be pretty good. Since that system is in my home office and I was spending 8-10 hours a day in there with the system always on, I started to obsess about the tube life. Eventually, I sold the Rogue and bought a 200wpc McIntosh solid state integrated. It sounded 1000% better.
Heard Maggie 3.7i with..
...a Rogue Cronus Magnum driving them. The combo sounded surprisingly great. I was surprised that a 100 wpc amp could drive them so well. Anyone else have experience with "low" powered amps and Maggies. When I've had Maggies, I've always had amps in the 150 to 250 (8 ohms) range. Though I now have Golden Ear Triton1s, I think I will eventually have Maggies again. I've heard the Cronus with T1 and it's also a great combo.
I guess the point of all this is that while I generally believe you should choose speakers first and then choose the amp to drive them, I'm thinking of getting the Rogue now and the Maggies in the future. Mistake? Thoughts?
