I drive my 3.5s with a Bryston 3BST (200 wpc @ 4 ohms). Last
night I played a disc which is heavy on acoustic bass, and I
found myself wishing for a lot more power - like maybe 2 pairs
of 7BSTs (800 wpc @ 4 ohms).
Yes, you can drive Maggies with low powered amps; my firm belief
is that you will be much happier with higher powered amps. Let
your ears be your guide.
