Greetings, all.

I've loved music my entire life, and my hi-fi love began with two pairs of Klipsch Heresy's my dad had at home. Since high school, I've had various systems of varying niceness, but nothing that I would really consider 'hi-fi'. Today I pulled the trigger on a pair of Magneplanar 1.7i's, and I am very excited. Was hoping to find some people on here who have Maggies and see what has worked for them over the years in terms of amplification, etc.

Welcome Ben.  You may want to take a look at the Planar Circle, a lot of knowledgeable folks over there, many run Maggie's.

Best,
Ed

Welcome to AC, and indeed the Planar Circle would be a great place to have a peek.

Lots of knowledge there, I have never heard your speakers, but I own their spiritual ancestor in the 1.6.  I run a Crown XLS 1500 with them, and am very happy.  There are better amps, but for the $, I find it killer.
