Magnepan..the sun rises and sets on..or does it??


I'm updating my old but good pair of Kef 104.2 speakers.
There is certainly alot of hype ,out there ,for the Magnepan speakers..1.6QR especially.
I'm very isolated so to hear a pair of Magnepans is almost impossible.
Are they that good?
Should I be buying shares in the company?
Any suggestions or opinions would be greatly appreciated.
My system..Blue Circle 3.1 pre.4B ST amp..etc.etc.

Maggies can be a lot more demanding of room and placement than your Kef's. Make sure you can accomodate them. I don't know if Maggies are necessarily better but they sure are different. I happen to like both. With no disrespect to those who love other models of Magnaplanars, if it were me (room willing) I'd hold out for a 3 series. Good listening.
