attenuating maggie 3.6's


anyone done this? results good bad or ugly? i blow tweeter fuses sometimes, and sometimes i find the speakers bright. i'm running bryston 7bst's, a rogue 99 magnum, linn front ends (lp-12 and ikemi), a rel sub, all wired up with acoustic zen. thanks in advance.

I would suggest that if you use a resistor that you use the highest quality type you can find. I tried the ones that came with my Maggies and they sounded somewhat grainy and less transparent. Magnepan does not appear to be supplying resistors of premium quality...

I don't know the best ones to use and I went back to using my Maggies without the resistors, but perhaps someone here has experimented more with different types and can tell you the best kind to use.
