| seeking advise please on my short list for new speakers? (15k budget) I purchased the ATC SCM 19’s a couple months ago and they are breaking in nicely. If ATC has a house sound I personally would not describe them as lively, forward, or energetic. I would use terms like revealing, neutral, non-fatiguing. Of the spe... | |
| Woofers pumping Never play those two songs again. | |
| Can you have too much speaker presence? newbee 4,556 posts 07-16-2023 at 05:34pm FWIW when I have seen the word 'presence' it has been referring to the mid/upper mid range. I was recently watching A British Audiophile's youtube channel. He referred to the "presence region" as be... | |
| Is 12'x12' too small for Magnepan 1.7's? 13' x 11' room here with .7's. Don't sleep on the .7's very musical, low distortion, and put out great bass in my room. Jim (tomic) has said he thinks the .7's are the most coherent maggie he's heard. | |
| KEF final call I lived with the R11 for a year or so then got upgrade-itus. I was looking for something more organic sounding with more/ and lower bass. I think a pair of R3's with two subs and tube amp would make a fantastic system. Thanks for the heads up. ... | |
| What's your picks Magnepan LRS+ or .7 might be a good recommendation if you like that sound and have the proper amplification. I'm certainly having fun with my .7's and I've had probably close to a dozen speakers. | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's Wow, someone's triggered. Came onto my thread twice to put me down. Get a life. | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's @ditusa I would consider the Pharaoh. I've heard it a bunch at Quest for Sound in Bensalem, PA. | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's @ghdprentice @skucie I've spied that unit at AudioConnection in Verona, NJ. I think I actually heard it with a pair of VLR's. Musical and beautiful amp sounds good to me.... | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's I installed resistors and it definitely helped. | |
| Integrated amp recommendation for Maggie .7's @rodman99999 - room is 11' x 13' - i like it to sound as big and full as possible - i think i only notice the brashness at high volume levels ~85db Also I do have (2) Rel T5/i subs that I employ occasionally. Sometimes I just like to listen to ... | |
| Maggie owners -- Mye or Magna Riser stands I cannot compare Mye vs. Magna Riser, but I'm very pleased with the Magna Riser vs. the stock stands on my .7's. Now my panels don't point at the ceiling. There was a noticeable improvement in sonics with the Magna Risers. They took a LONG time to... | |
| Integrated amp recommendation Another vote for Rogue Sphinx. | |
| The LRS+ Speakers @rankaudio That's interesting. I primarily listen to jazz: Miles Davis, Bill Evans, Oscar Peterson, Chet Baker, Wes Montgomery, Ray Brown, etc. etc. and find they image exceptionally well. I'm discovering that Maggie's - in my application - need t... | |
| The LRS+ Speakers @mesch All Belles. Aria Signature pre and Aria 112wpc monos. The guy makes great affordable gear. |
