Is Maggie 20.1 still overall better than 3.7?
"Thanks, Hasse--do you use any of the tweaks I listed?" Hi Freeman, yes I´m using the Cardas mid and tweeter jumpers and I am tempted to try the Synergistic Red. 
Is Maggie 20.1 still overall better than 3.7?
"Interesting--I like my 3.6R’s with the Mye stands, Cardas jumpers and SR Red fuses. I would put them up against stock 3.7i’s. Maybe.....any more opinions on the two?"I have owned the 3.6 and currently the 3.7, I would say both have their strenght... 
Synergistic Red Fuse ...
I´m tempted to try them in my Maggie 3.7´s. 
Your favorite recent discovery

Magnepan 1.7 to 3.7i or Pass Labs XA60.5 to X100.5
Thanks gonzales, I have heard the 60.8´s driving a pair of Dynaudio C4 Platinums (88dB), the meters stayed in the middle/never left class-A, but I have also heard Magnepan owners saying that even the XA100.5/8 is not sufficient. 
Magnepan 1.7 to 3.7i or Pass Labs XA60.5 to X100.5
I have a friend who has the 3.7i with 2 bass panels. He is driving them using a Pair of Pass 60.8 monoblocks. This is a very nice sounding setup.Would you say that the 60.8 monos have enough juice to Power the 3.7´s? 
Magnepan 1.7 to 3.7i or Pass Labs XA60.5 to X100.5
but I actually took the time to measure it. It's actually 18' x 15' 
Amp recommendation for Magnepan 3.7's?
What about the Pass XA amps? 
Fuses that matter.
"Hasse - See my post above."Sorry Hifial, I missed your post, "Red" seems interesting. Thanks 
Sweet spot in the AudioQuest line of cables
"I've found that the AQ products to be consistently neutral and not overly system dependent."I agree, I still prefer my AQ Argents over many more costly speaker cables 
Fuses that matter.
Anyone tried the new, and quite expensive, Synergistic Red? How does it compare to other "high-end" fuses? I am thinking of trying something better than the stock fuses in my Maggie 3.7´s....if there is such a thing as a better fuse??? 
Lamm 1.2 vs. Pass xa 60.5
If you like the Pass sound, XA 100.8?.....but I´m sure the Lamm hybrids are very good as well. 
Pass Integrated to Pass separates
Anyone seen a review of the new Point 8 series? I am curious how the XA 100.8 compares to the 100.5 
Speaker cable Audioquest Forest or Argent+ ?
I found both cables in The Cable Company´s price list for Oktober 98; Forest $695/10ft pair, Argent $1295/10ft pair 
Speaker cable Audioquest Forest or Argent+ ?
I believe they were discontinued in 2000
