Kessler is a well regarded designer in his own right, and ATI is a big OEM manufacturer. The Theta Ncore Prometheus monos date back to 2013 so they had been at it for a while.
Follow Ups:
The Theta Ncore Prometheus uses the NC1200 which are supposed to be stable to 2 Ohms and are not running bridged. I would like to hear these.
The reviewer compared it against his reference ML334 amp (ML's entry level stereo amp against Theta's mono-blocks). A more appropriate comparison would have been against the ML335 or ML336 (similar power and price).
ML334:
Rated output power: 125/250/500
Price: $5,900
NC1200:
Rated output power: 400/700/1200
Prometheus Rated output power: 250/500/850
Prometheus Price: $12,000
ML335:
Rated output power: 250/500/1000
Price: $7,900
ML336:
Rated output power: 350/700/1400
Price: $9,500
I have the ML336 in house and think it would be an interesting comparison.
The Maggie 4 ohm load is mostly resistive without dips. If the amp does 4 ohms well then you are just fine.
