Magnepan 3.7i VS 2.7X "I might also add that the 3.7i is a superior speaker in every way. " I did not care for the sound of the 3.7i in my room. The 2.7 uses a shorter ribbon that crosses over at a lower frequency than the full size ribbon in the 3.7i. More true r... | |
Magnepan 3.7i VS 2.7X Agreed, some people just like to criticize without knowing what they are talking about. "Using thin wire over too long a distance will result in a reduction of power to your speakers. Worse, if the wire is too thin for the amount of current it is... | |
Odyssey Audio Kismet Mono Blocks Kind of an old thread but will jump in here. In December I got a pair of Magneplanar 2.7Xs. The monoblock amps I had at the time just could not handle the Maggie load, and just about melted. I didn't have an unlimited budget so felt I had a choice... | |
Pass X150.5 or Odyssey Stratos monos? This seems like an older thread but will just jump in. I got a pair of Maggie 2.7Xs and tried drive them with an AVA DV225 mono blocks. They just about melted in about 10 minutes. I had previous experience with a stereo Kismet that had a very simi... | |
Magnepan 3.7i VS 2.7X Hello, I had the first pair of 2.7X delivered in the US. I got them in December. I have not compared directly to the 3.7i so I can't really comment on a comparison. The 3.7i were just too big for my room, I felt. I have a pair of VMPS subwoofers t... | |
Thinking of going 2-CH from HT....Tube ? I have an AVA U70 driven by a Pioneer TDX 49i driving a pair of Infinity IM 4.1. The sound of the U70 is amazing. I wouldn't trade it for anything! system sounds good for both HT and 2 channel listening. | |
Infinity Intermezzo 4.1T Towers. Okeeteekid, the drivers in the Intermezzo are much different than in the Preludes. Please check your facts. Mine are going strong with zero issues and still sound wonderful, especially with piano music.:)I have spoken with some of the folks at Inf... | |
Infinity Intermezzo 4.1T Towers. These are the last of the big time Infinities. Great bargain on the used market. Can't add much to the review above except to say that these tend to more of the solid West Coast sound as opposed to the floaty transparent East Coast sound. GREAT wi... | |
Cheap Interconnects from Hong Kong I bought a pair of the CV-8 DBS 72 and columbia interconnects. No original packaging but the nice velvet bag. I am no expert but the cables looked pretty good to me. When I put them into my system they were really, really nice. I am not sure if th... |
