Sunfire Receiver or Separates and Magneplanar Spea


Looking to build a new HT system around a large plasma screeb. From an easthetic POV and WAF, the MAggies sure look interesting, particularly the models they sel direct. I've read the various posts on the Forum regarding power requirements, and liited extension so wondering if a solution built around the latest Sunfire recevier would work. The room wont be huge, but not sure the smallest maggie set up will cut it, Was thinkink about the slightly more expensive direct sale Maggies (3 pairs) and thier larger center channnel. Any thoughts? Sunwoofer recommendations?

I am not sure of the sunfire reciever that you are looking at, but as long as you have greater than 125 W into 4 ohms you are golden. The Maggies MMG-W and MMG-C system is fantastic, and if you read reviews, which can be believed by the way, one of the best values in all audio. Depending on budget and room I would suggest a small Sunfire sub (MK Jr?), a Velodyne DD-10, one of the Talon subs, or Rel. There are other good choices as well.

One thing that you will need, is the Outlaw Audio ICBM. It is a very simple analog bass management system. Your processor may do this for you, I am not sure, but if it does not, this is a great about $200 (used) solution.

This is a great choice, and you won't be sorry.
