Magnepan Owners - Need Your Thoughts Please
You will never get that Bass/mid bass Impact from the Magnepans that you get from the k-horns, no matter what amps you use. You will get better sound than what you have now with at least 500 watts at 4ohms high current amp.I have had both Klipsh a... 
Dynaudio C1 with more impact
You cant have Slam (Impact) at low levels. (Just my interpretation of SLAM)You can have clear acurate reproduction of frequencies. But for Slam you do need to turn up the volume. This doesnt mean you need to be at 110db.So now the question is to y... 
Dynaudio C1 with more impact
I agree with a lot of these posts, I also listen to the same style of music as you. Considering you have the room, I would look for a speaker with more or larger drivers. You need to presurize the room for Impact. I currently own Revel F52's and t...

Tools to measure in room response
The Idea of flat is that you get all frequencys at the same sound level. That doesnt mean thats the way Music is recorded. I have a Mcintosh A2 it has a Fixed output pink/white noise or specific 1/3 octive test tones 20 to 20kI use it to find the ... 
Upgrade from Spendor SP 1/2, what's next?
I have owned the Spendor SP1/2e and loved them. Used a Pass x250 amp and also a Rogue Stereo 90. The had the midrange magic, excelent top end and tight bass. But they couldnt handle low octives. If you get a subwoofer with a crosover that might wo...
