Magnepan MMG with ICEPower amplifiers

[E-Stat]

E-Stat, all "PA" amps are not the same. I looked at the Crowns on the recommendation of someone who tried them with some Apogee ribbons and reported very good results.

Indeed, one's choice of amps that can drive their unusual 1 ohm load are rather limited. Most Apogee folks use Krell or large tube amps. To what did he compare?

If the OP is a DIY'r one of the ClassD amps like Feanor built could be a good alternative.

Unlike Feanor's unit, I'd rather not use an amp with a fan for music playback.
