They are nice spkrs but I believe have "There" sound(driver configuration) . Good or great your choice . I remember getting a pair of smg maggies with my tax return in 85 i still think about them after owning and being a salesman for maggies among others years ago . Small maggies need a sub or a pair to rock in my opionion . I also have the same taste in music and my old 1.7 with 2 subs was slick . Again "There" sound . Just my two cents . I currently run adagios and love them for this type of music ( sometimes i turn the sub on )
Magnepan .7s' vs Zu Omens
Greetings Friends. I'm getting the fever again. I currently have a pair of Magnepan .7's which I really like with 2 caveats. One is that my studio apt. isn't 100% conducive to the ideal set up for them. The other is my primary listening is electric blues and classic rock (Tull, Zeppelin, etc.) and the Maggies (to me) lack that nth degree of impact that suits that type of music, too "polite" maybe? I've been intrigued by the Zu Omens and have been told they might be a better choice for my listening tastes. I know we are talking apples and oranges, hence I'm reaching out for thoughts and advice. Amp is Wyred A500 (needed the current for the .7's). Source is an Oppo BDP 105.
Thanks!
