Maggies sound just fine with a quality class d amp. (Now I start the Battle over whether or not Quality Class D is an oxymoron!)

Believe Magnepan recommends against Class-D amps on their website. Read their FAQ section about same.

That FAQ is ancient. Class-D amps work just fine. Bel Canto, Wyred 4 Sound, Merrill Audio, no problemo.

.7's in for review
Oh I can also add HEGEL H390
Or CAMBRIDGE CXN V2 or Blusound Node 2i+ KRELL 300i To the options. I heard this KRELL with .7 before using Cardas Iridium SC, And it sounded fantastic, but the source was R2R deck. TOGA |

I do not know the power rating for the M33. Even the .7's crave some nice power. If the M33 is over 100WPC for 8 ohms then it likely would suffice.

They didn’t mention Class A at all in FAQ I think Luxman L590 AX II is nice. How about Mcintosh like MA5300,8900 where they don’t doubling down output Power into 4 ohm, but they are mostly very powerful. |

200W into 8. What I like about it is the one-piece does it all concept. But because of being a mass market products, chance of Borrowing for home audition is none, unlike some higher end brands. Toga |

The critical factor for any Maggie is current delivery and damping factor above 1000, I am currently driving 1.7i with a Hegel H390 with a damping factor of 4000, it has vice like grip on the panel and the bass is superlative no sub woofer needed |

McIntosh amps with the autoformers, like the MA8900, are rated at the same power regardless of the speaker's impedance. With their non-autoformer amps, like the MA5300, they do have a higher power rating at the lower impedance. Either should be fine.
