Supernait definitley drives Maggies. A dealer not too far away from me had a pair wired up to one and playing for a while. No issues with driving them, although I did think the sound was a bit meh.

I'd have thought a Quad 909 might fit the bill rather well.

I'd do exactly the same. You never know until you get something in your own room and experiment a bit. Even something like a speaker cable change can turn something ordinary into a keeper. I really do like the look of many Magneplanars too. Mind you, the LVs are gorgeous too.
There is a lot of discussion on US and Maggie forums. Emotiva amps are considered a good budget pairing. I tried lots of powerful UK power amps on home trial. Exposure, Parasound, Audiolab, Roksan. None really were ideal. In the end I imported an Odyssey amp from the US. It was a custom design, a hybrid of their Khartago and Stratos models with upgraded components and power supply. The synergy is incredible!
