Magnepan for a small room

Thanks 4musica44107, but I'm trying to stay under $1K for my speakers.

Br3098, do you think a floorstanding speaker would overpower the room? I don't want to over kill the room but I just want a natural bass sound.

I have such a set-up but it only works because the Maggies are 5 feet out in the room, yes that's right 5 feet out in a 10 foot room. They really don't work stuck in the corners.

Thanx, Russ

Pastor - Now that I know your budget, I have a different recommendation. If you can find a pair of Alon Petite 2-ways, they would be a great choice. I used a pair from 1998 to 2001 in a room your same approximate size. I did not feel I was lacking without a sub, but there is one available. In the past the Petites and the matching sub have typically sold for under $1000 on audiogon and eBay. The Petites were very highly regarded when Carl Marchisotta first introduced them. I recall one reviewer describing them as the best 2-way monitor for under $1000 per pair in 1998. I still have mine; use them almost daily in our home gym. Good luck!

for a room that size, i'd go w/ proac or harbeth monitors
