I was unable to realize the full potential of my Magnepan 1.6QR until I bypassed the factory crossovers and replaced them with a Marchand tube electronic x-over in a bi-amplification arrangement using a Carver 275 and a pair of Carver 350 monoblocks. To this I added one ML 800 sub with a plan to add three more. The results, so far, have been amazing.
Maggies with a subwoofer system - optimization?
I need advice on how best to improve the midrange and base on my Magnapans (1.6qrs)My idea is to relieve the panels of base duty ( only feed the signal above 100 to 150 hertz to the panels and let my Swarm subs take the low end signal). I assume my midrange will improve, and the solid base performance via the sub system will fill in well. I now run a Krell S550i integrated into the Maggies, and the Krell Pre output into the DaytonAudio SA1000 Subwoofer amp.
Any feedback is appreciated - will I lengthen the life of my panels? Am I wasting my time?
