magnepan mmgs-buy zero autoformers or stands 1st?
thanks eldar. actually the mmg's are sounding better every day, just the way they are, using 4 ohm taps. bass is getting better and tightening up. plenty of clean, undistorted volume, actually more volume than i need. anyway, i think this amp is p...

tvad, you are right. no mention of break-in? this is ridiculous.....from what i read these speakers have one of the longest break-in periods, very strange they don't mention it in the manual... and no, i haven't been able to try different position...

ok, thought that that's what this forum was for tho. to get opinions. i'm getting great bass with the el34's.. it's only on certain recording where it is boomy. i will live with that if i have to. cardas set-up is almost 6 feet from front wall- no...

hey, i'm forgetting something. the mmg's aren't even a week old and not broken in yet. bass should tighten up as they break in correct? i still think there is plenty of power because i'm getting plenty of bass, able to play loud without speakers b...
