Maggies New or Older Models???


OK, I want to get my feet wet and try some Maggies entry level models. Am I better to look for the higher priced older models used or purchase the entry level model like the 1.6s or the next level down.

Also, what about room placement?

Thanks

As I write this and listen to my brand spankin new (refurbished) Maggie 3.5s I am glad I researched at length what Maggies sound like. First realize that if you purchase Maggies 1.6 or higher you will need to spend mula for power. You don't have enough! They need +500 watts per channel mono/bridged to sound good.

My suggestion is if you like the maggie sound and can afford $1,800 look at used 3.5s and spend the rest on amp/preamp ugrades. You will be happy.

Happy listening :)
