In Reply to: Quick and detailed Amp for Magneplanar 20.1 or Warm & Relaxed? posted by DkB on July 21, 2006 at 23:56:31:
No amp will compensate for dynamic compression and maintain neutrality.If the MG-20.1 is similar to my MG-20s in this regard, you can improve matters by rebuilding the crossovers and bypassing the miserable hardware and fuses.
IME, the Gilmore Raptor switching amps, 500 watts per channel, have the clearest, cleanest and most relaxing presentation. They avoid the noise issues of switching power supplies by having oversized linear supplies. The damping is as good as it can be, which is important with the large Maggies. They appear to be less sensitive than amps with feedback to RF noise picked up by the speakers and the speaker cables.
