RE: Amplifier for 1.7/ 3.7 magnepans

No, the preamp was not compressed at all. It was a Mark Levinson 326s which sounds great on a variety of amps. In any case, the setup didn't sound compressed with his Class D monoblocks.

Yes, the Stereo 90 is now the Stereo 100, an upgrade but still in the same power class. Based on what I heard I honestly don't think the 100wpc Stereo 100 or Cronus Magnum II will be fully sufficient for the Maggies. I love the Cronus Magnum which I run on my Thiel CS2.4 in the basement setup but this fairly robust tube amp might be marginal on Maggies. If Rogue still makes their larger 180wpc monoblocks, those might do the trick.

Oh, I found the review. The Atash monoblocks are actually 400wpc. I'm not suggesting you need these, just saying you probably need more power than 100wpc.
