Quad or Magnepan?


Dear friends,

Thinking about taking the plunge and follow the other route to audio nirvana. So instead of cones and domes, electrostatics and planars maybe.

I am using a Ref3a Grand Veena but am considering a Maggie 3.6 or a Quad 2905.

Need your sincere advice, am I downgrading or making the wiser move. If it is the right way, which would you prefer? Maggies or Quad?

Thanks as always.

Thanks to all who contributed.

Jaybo: You sound like your personal choice would be GV's right? If so what do you think its competitive edge is to Maggie and Quads?

Unsound: I wanted to try something different, something with a more you are there feeling and huge soundstage. That does not mean that GV is not competent at these, however I had a brief encounter with 3.6 one week ago and was thrilled with what it is capable of.

Mr.Bill: I love GV, it is one of the best I have heard so far, maybe sparing Hansen aside. So no real complaints.

Philojolet: My room is like 45 square meters.

Unfortunately Sanders and Kingsound is not available here.

I would also hear from people who could have listened all and compare GV to the other two? Any first hand experiences?

Thanks
