Why not horns?
Unsound, I should have used the word 'one', rather than 'you',in my comment about a boom box, sorry If I offended you, I was talking generally.'Tiddy pom' is sort of like the word 'widget',in this context it means musical information passed onto t... 
Are there any albums you consider perfect?
Ok, here's one for jazz lovers;Stephane Grappelli 'Live in Dublin, Ohio',on the TKOMagnum label #CDSB1014.It rocks!, or should that be jazzes?lol

06-28-10: Unsound'Gawdbless, I philosophically disagree with you, as I don't believe it's reasonable to expect speakers to "enhance music". If a speaker accurately portrays a recording for better or worse, I think it very fair to blame the recordi...

Weiseas, yes the very same as the reveiwers, although Mr Hughes has done a few modifications to his pair over the years that he has owned them.I have not done any mods to my pair.I believe he also uses the Townshend super tweeter with them.

We: will you not share what speakers you listen to and that what floats your boat?I have heard a few of the speakers you list, and I would say my Impulse H1's can be held in the same company as any of them and, any speaker regardless of price or t...

WE:'Again , everyone has there own preference, Maybe if you like small wattage tube amplifiers, this is your gig, maybe the only gig, they do not work for me...'I prefer SS amps with my horns.

Unsound:While the 3.5's can sound a bit hard on occasion (and this is very dependent on the recording),Unsound, are you blaming the music for the hardness you are hearing occasionally? Please can you name the recording/s or artist/s?Its an easy co... 
Best tracks to "show off" your system
Planty and Kraussy off the album 'Raising sand', track title'Sister Rosetta goes before us', mesmerizing lilting track, lovely vocals by Kraussy, and all the instruments are nice with a special mention of the violin/fiddle in the background. 
any early 80's alt/soft punk fans out there?
Ian Dury and the Blockheads, although the 'new boots and panties' album came out in '77 still deserves a mention.

If I had a pair of Magnepans, I would make sure I lived near a beach with big waves, so I could use them as surf boards.LOL.

08-19-06: UnsoundOz, I do like the Thiel sound. I'v been using Thiels since 1988. While the 3.5's can sound a bit hard on occasion (and this is very dependent on the recording), I personaly think they might be one of the all time great classics,Wi... 
Which Davies' Kind of Blue CD sounds better?
Just picked up a copy of the 1997 Sony SBM version of this cdfor 50c and it is far from being a lifeless copy.It is rather excellent to my ears, everything sounds as clear as a bell and his trumpet really shines soundwise with vibrancy.A thumbs up... 
Still lost at sea?
I am still on the ship and loving it. The boat is something one gets into when the ship is sinking. 
Why not horns?
I would like to see those who query those that are in the know, to actually design and produce a loudspeaker and make a pair to be scrutinized. I own a pair of JohnK speakers and have heard Dukes loudspeakers on at least 2 separate occasions,they ...
