| Speakers for Gryphon Diablo 120 I suggest Audiovector speakers for Gryphon Diablo. They have an amazing tweeter which is very quick but doesn’t get bright at all. | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! Besides ordering the new stands from Mysound, I'm also seriously considering the GR Research Magnepan 3.7i kit, which is basically a vastly improved crossover. Just looking at the before and after graphs published on Danny's website, it looks like... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @mclinnguy Thanks for the Live Vibe rack suggestion. If you look at my virtual system you will see that all my racks are Live Vibe, including the two three-shelf racks and the one underneath my Vitus amp. This was one of the best investments I mad... | |
| Burmester 218..... Zeusman’s system is pretty midfi. He has no business, pedigree, or understanding to be disrupting a thread about true hifi stuff like Burmester. | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @mclinnguy All good points! Where I find I am enjoying the "impact" is on leading edges of notes- like bass guitars- you know, the electric amplified ones. I get a little "punch" from the midrange driver that was not so noticeable with the plan... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! Thanks, @lalitk .. your input has always been appreciated and honestly has played a huge role in how my system has evolved over the years. | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! So it has been a few weeks since I received the new Magnepan 3.7i’s. I thought I’d share my findings -- good and bad, thus far ... First, break in is important for most speakers but probably even more important for the Maggies. Initially, they so... | |
| Thinking of Magnepan ... finally! @audioisnobiggie I don't think I understand your post. What is the point you're trying to make? | |
| REL S/510 subwoofer initial impressions Give it another 50 hours or so. Also, what is the crossover and gain settings? | |
| Enough is Enough Your dealer is right. Your system sucks! I’m happy to take it off of your hands for 25% of retail value. J/k 😃 all kidding aside, this is a great system that most of us would love to own. | |
| Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… +1 @gryphongryph I would also add that very few speakers do vocals like the BBC speakers. I would love to own the bigger Grahams some day. When I first heard them, I preferred them over Harbeth 40.2. However, I think 40.3 has closed the gap consi... | |
| Current or Previous Harbeth Owners… I owned Buchardt S400 when they first came out. Very different speaker with different target audience. If hearing the nth level of detail is the goal, then I agree Harbeth is not the right choice. Both are very good speakers though. | |
| Do speakers need to be re-broken in? @mclinnguy The dealer told me they were his demo speakers. It's possible they weren't broke in yet. I played them for maybe 40-50 hours before sending back. In retrospect, and after reading your impressions I might have been hasty in returning them. | |
| Do speakers need to be re-broken in? @mclinnguy Apologies, didn't mean to hijack your Horning thread. But it will still be interesting to learn more about how they compare to Magnepans at some point. | |
| Do speakers need to be re-broken in? @mclinnguy I'm glad that you're finally happy with the Horning Eufrodites. Will be interesting if you can share how they compare with your other babies -- the Maggies :) I've recently added a pair of nice, and very fast, subwoofers to support my ... |
