speaker cable suggestion for Magnepans
Anyone tried the Synergistic, Purist or Kimber Select cables with 3.6´s? 
Has anyone tried the Synergistic A/C Master Active
Thanks, how would you describe the bass? Fat, lean, taut, loose, etc? 
Bladelius Gondul anyone heard this player?
I compared it to the ARC CD3 MKII and the top-of-the-line Meridian. I would describe it as very neutral. 
Bladelius Gondul anyone heard this player?
I have the Gondul/3 (www.bladelius.com) in my system. Stunningly good sounding multiformat player. Unfortunately I´ve not heard the modified Denon so I can not comment. And yes, Jim Aud is using the Gondul/3. 
Thoughts on the Audio Research 150.2
Thanks Rsorren1, I´m considering a 300.2 for my Magnepans but how would you describe the bass compared to the FPB 300 which is known for having great powerful bass? 
What should I use between spikes and wood floor?
A.R.T. Q-Dampers 
Ayre CX-7- Better balanced or RCA?
CX-7 owners, which CDP´s did you audition before you decided on the Ayre? TIA 
Martin-Logan as alternative to Magnepan 1.6's
I had Sequel II´s, SL-3´s and reQuests before I decided to switch to the Maggie 3.6´s. I´ve never regretted the decision. 
Purist Audio : Venustas vs. Dominus?
Has anyone compared the Venustas to the kimber Select cables? I was wondering which would be the best match with my magneplanar 3.6/R´s. TIA. 
Maggie 1.6QR amplification questions
I second the DNA-1 (dlx). A great match with my MG3.6/R´s. 
upgrading from McCormack DNA-1 to.....?
I would suggest you try the bigger Maggies, 1.6 or 3.6. The DNA-1 dlx is a great match with both Logans and Magnepans but I find the Maggies´ (3.6/R) voicing warmer and smoother sounding while the ´stat panel of the Logans (SL-3 and reQuest) had t... 
anyone have any experince with audiostatic spks
I owned the 240 MD´s for more than ten years without any problems, great ´stats but somewhat rolled off highs and very tough to drive. 
McCormack DNA-1 vs. B&K ST202 or 2140
Can´t comment on the B&K but my DNA-1 dlx did a great job driving both the SL-3´s and the reQuests I used to own. 
Maggie 1.6QR vs 2.7QR
The 2.7 does not have a true ribbon tweeter, it´s a 3-waysystem using a Quasi Ribbon tweeter. The bass driver of the 2.7 is the same as the 3.5 and the midrange is a smaller version of the 3.5 midrange. 
Speaker cables for Maggie 3.5s
My 3.6/R´s are hooked up with a double run of AudioTruth (AQ Argent+, but I´d love to try the Kimber Selects.
