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?

Hey Happy New Year everyone. I’ve driven my 3.7i with a Parasound Hint and a Pass 250.8. The Parasound was great but when I switched to the Pass it had much better and firmer control of the bottom end. Maggie’s like getting high current . I’ve seen some high watt amps out there but they lack in current.
If you enjoy the Rogue and have heard it with your future speakers go for it. You could give Rogue a call and ask what they think of the paring, I find most manufacturers are honest about their products. I've had some tell me not to buy theirs for certain match ups.
