Wharfedale Emerald 97 - compare to?
Yeap I would avoid them at all cost!!!I have a friend who sells and trades alot of gear.I get to bring some of this stuff home a play with it before it is sold.He had several pairs of new Wharfedales. We set up a pair at my house...I kid you not t... 
Magnepan Upgrade
Tireguy ..I have one more question. I can't tell but are those Mundorf caps used in your crossovers? I know these are considered one of the best caps in the world . If not what are those caps? 
Magnapan 3.5R and Sunfire Subwoofer ???
Geeez Jamesbh11 ..you have made two post and neither makes any sense to me! Magnepans are too slow? Dude you have got to be kidding! Normally it's the sub that sounds slow with these speakers. Please get out more often my friend! 
Magnepan Upgrade
WoW ..$16000.00 amps.Tireguy no ones perfect! Including myself. Well if thats the case maybe pick up some MG20.1s or Soundlabs! I still wouldn't sell those 2.6Rs though.Those Maggies are hard to come by and if you stuck them on Agon they would be ... 
Magnepan Upgrade
Thanks guys for your input on the zobel network. It was a thought but not something I have under taken. Tireguy the 2.6R does use the True ribbon tweeter. As well as my own 2.5R uses the True ribbon tweeter. These are some of the few Maggies that ... 
Magnepan Upgrade
I would get with the Magnepan Gurus Tire Guy and Eldartford! LOL Seriously... I think these two guys really know their stuff when it comes to Magnepans!If you have the courage ..you can do the mods yourself.IMHO it gives you a much deeper connecti... 
Seperates or Receiver on a Budget
I listened to the Deftec 7000 series with a Denon Receiver.Everything was powered like your setup. It nearly rattled fillings loose in my mouth! The Deftecs do just fine with a nice receiver for HT. You can get a nice Yamaha,Denon or Marantz somet... 
comparation between Magnepan & KEF ref. series
JaFox what was the slew rate of your previous amplifiers ?..compared to the Counterpoint NPS 400? Just curious. I had a Mcintosh SS that was spec at 300 wpc.The Monarchy 25 wpc walked the dog on it in controlling my speakers!The Monarchy had a muc... 
comparation between Magnepan & KEF ref. series
Yes I agree Eldartford..but I won't tell my wife that!!LOLYou ever went on a long trip playing the radio in your vehicle at a volume you thought was normal. Only to have a rude awakening the next morning when you turn the ignition only to be blast... 
comparation between Magnepan & KEF ref. series
Eldartford...I agree to a certain extent. My Soliloquys 6.3s actually sounded better with amplifiers under 100 wpc but I also used them with amps better than 500 wpc. With no loss of dynamics what so ever,I could rattle the windows with a 25 wpc M... 
comparation between Magnepan & KEF ref. series
Yep ..I agree with the Magnepan Gurus. Accept on the power.I listened to the 1.6QR on a 400 wpc amplifier with digital a display of wattage output at a buddys home. The amplifier fluctuated between 79.5 wpc on the bass notes and 19 wpc during the ...

SA-XR25 or SA-XR45 ?
Near Sota and Panny are one and the same poster if I am not mistaken. 
SA-XR25 or SA-XR45 ?
Drubin ..I hope they are right..then I will be buying the XR70 sooner than what I thought! Hello Eldartford...I meant it would have HDMI interface ..that will allow transmission of DVD-Audio in the digital domain .If you look at the back of XR25/X...
