Just received shipment of my Magnepan LRS’s

Yesterday I took delivery of my Magnepan LRS’s. I am powering them with a Rogue Audio Sphinx 2 through Stealth Audio MLT speaker cables. Sources are a Rega RP6 and an Oppo BDP 105. I know that these speakers have a long way to go to break in, but what great soundstaging, decay, depth and lifelike imaging. Can’t wait to see how they are doing in 6 months. This is my 3rd set of Maggies and I am tickled to have their sound back in my home.

I live exactly 6.2 miles from Magnepan , as speaker companies go it is a large company .
More audiopiles use them than any other speaker .Their problem is two-fold , if don’t have an amp that puts out at least 400 watts a side @ 4 ohms you will never know what they can do .And they have always been a bit shy on dynamics, esp. with classical music .
I have owned 4 pairs and switched to Totem for that reason . People I respect say the LRS has corrected that and I plan on gifting my self a pr for Christmas . God willing .


I suspect the reason they are not hiring is that Twin Cities economy is VERY good and the unemployment rate for those who want a job is zero . Twin cities is only place in USA where you can buy a real Hi-End system made where you live .
