| Which components are "stupid good"? Magnepan MMGs (best sounding budget speakers) | |
| Help? Stereo for art studio, under $1k I would look into a Pure I-20 dock for your Iphone. If you get a decent DAC, you will be amazed at the sound you can get. But the DAC inside the Pure is good as well. Go with Tidal or Spotify as a music source, but you can still listen to the musi... | |
| Magnepan MMG........amazing I have them. Great sound. Luv it. Wonderful for vocals and jazz. Yeah for the price. TREMENDOUS. I would like to get 1.7i or 3.7i. You need alot of power and current to get the best sound IMHO. | |
| What used speaker would you buy with $20,000-$35,000 and why? I would get Magnepan 3.7i and the best tight subwoofers and crossover I could find. Maybe twin server subs like REL or GR research.

| Simple question, best sounding inexpensive DAC. Ive got the Bifrost Uber. Very musical. I use the optical in from a quality CD spinner. I also use an optical switch and with that I can also toggle over to a Pure I20 dock and use my Iphone to play Tidal or Spotify through the Bifrost. Sounds ver... | |
| are magnepan mmg any good and intergrated amp suggestion for them I have two systems. In one I have MMGs paired with a Parasound A21 and it’s a great match. I had them connected to my tube amp, but I think they draw too much power or current from the amp. | |
| Classe CA200 vs. Parasound Halo A21 OEMId lay a bet you are going to fall in luv with that Classe amp. Nice decision and I have the A21, so I have respect for both brands. | |
