MMGs


A year ago, I bought a pair of MMGs.  In my 13x22 room, placement was a challenge but finally worked it out.

Speakers are powered by an Adcom GFA-555.  The only source is a CD player through a passive pre-amp.

Now I have a little more to spend and would like thoughts on the following options:

1) Mye stands for the MMGs

2) The DWM panel with the MMGs (secondary question - can this panel be placed on a side wall perpendicular to the MMGs?)

3) 1.7s

Open to other out-of-the-box suggestions as well.

The goal is always to attain that Magnepan soundstage.  Musical tastes are female vocalists, jazz, blues.

Thanks Schubert. The reason I asked was my brother in law has borrowed my MMGs and drove them with his Accurus integrated - I thinks 100wpc, and called me to say the amp was got very very hot to touch before he stopped it. This got me worried if he could have (also) potentially damaged the speakers. He also mentioned something about a bit of an "odor" from the speakers - not a burning odor, which made me very uncomfortable. I'll be getting back tomorrow but am a bit anxious....
Ar best it will degrade amp . MMG's are hardest of Maggies to drive and they all are . Oder could be glue on panels. Or not .
True Bryston is go to-amp for many Maggie owners .
But most buying MMG’s haven’t got that kind of money.
As said byJl, Odyssey Kartago is cheapest amp available i am sure will
handle them.
I used one for about a year on MMG’s, switched to Van Alstine Synergy 450 which really opened them up but they cost 2k , a bargain at that price
but still more than many can pay .
Just my 2 cents. I've owned 2 pair of MMG's, 1.6's and most recently .7's (my faves). I've paired all with many different amps with various levels of results. Typically, typically the more clean current the better the sound. I drove the MMG's with a Rogue Sphinx (100 w/ch 8 ohm, 200 4/ohm) with wonderful results. The best amp I had for any Maggies was a Wyred4Sound SSi500 integrated. Will mega $$ amps sound better, in theory yes. However, you can drive MMG's without going broke.
