I JUST PURCHASED A MARANTZ SR7300 OSE SIMPLY BECAUSE MY FRIEND BOUGHT ONE AND SAID IT WAS GREAT AND AT A GOOD PRICE. DUH! WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE. I AM TECHLESS AND SPACE IS A CONSIDERATION I'M NOT EVEN SURE WHAT MY MUSIC TO HT RATIO WOULD BE. I'VE BEEN LOOKING ON LINE AND THE MAGNEPANS MMG W AND MMG C SEEM VERY INTERESTING DUE TO WALL MOUNTING AND PRICE. I WOULD CONSIDER THE MCI AND CC3 IF IT IS THE BEST WAY TO GO BUT WOULD PUT A STRAIN ON THE BUDGET. I KNOW I WILL NEED A SUBWOOFER. DO I HAVE ENOUGH POWER FOR THE MAGS? I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY SUGGESTIONS. THANKS MARK
I don't think Marantz recommend 4ohm impendance loads for their receivers. Mine clearly states on the rear panel 6ohm as the maximum load. Also I've read Magnepan are reluctant to even sell you their speakers unless your amp can drive a 4ohm load.
