Thanks for your reply.
How did you get al that knowledge. Do we listen in the same way?
The room: There are no bass problems slooping ceiling. Two technical friends have measured the place of the speakers and the listening chair, by sending out sweeps. Two sub-woofers gave no problems. Also a big Burmester speaker with large bass driver, gave no problem at all. So no worries about the room.
I have listened two days now to the computer + Weiss dac en the sound is very good. But the volume must more than half open. So there must come also a bigger power amp. A decent amp costs 2000-3000 euro/dollar. A used one is no problem. It's a pitty to stop with the combination tube - solid state. A tube gives more the feeling the musicians are playing in the room. There is no solid state amp, who can do that. The bass will become better, but mid and high worse.
So can you tell me which amp is the best choice?
The following amps are the most mentioned for Magnepan;
Parasound A21
Bryston 4B3
Hegel H90
Wyred 4ST 500 mono
Naim 50 watt's
Jeff Rowland 125
