Suggestions for Maggie replacements.


Hi
My friend who has Maggie MG 12 AR (which he bought partly on my recommendation) now has to replace them due to WAF, needs something smaller at least than MG12, I suggested Vandersteen but the look ie black socks not acceptable.

Want to get suggestions on good used speakers in the $600-$700 range (monitor and booshelf is fine) that sound good (he know he cannot get the maggie sound) but also look good. He like Thiel, Totem and some of B&W speakers looks.

Take a look at the Meadowlark Kestral. You probably won't find the "hot rod" version for that price, but the "stock" version can be had in the $600 range. They're beautiful to look at (most are finished in rosewood), have a very small (WAF friendly) foot print and sound terrific.
Whoa Tuna! The question was USED speakers for $600-700, not NEW speakers for $500-700 as you suggest.

The Kestrals (non hot-rod) are $1295, but can easily be had for $600-700 USED, as specified by Shiram.

It's obvious that you're a BIG fan of the Titus. That's great. We're all just giving some recommendations, not necessarily knocking others recommendations.

We're all friends here. Now let's join hands and sing Kumbaya.
