| Speaker suggestions under 4k You might be surprised I have 3.7i in a 12 x 15 room and they sound amazing I previously had the 1.7 which were also great. As long as you can get them about 36" out from the wall you're all set. | |
| Speaker suggestions under 4k If you have the space I don't think you can beat the sound of Magnepan 3.7i there's a used pair in the $3600 range you can add a sub later if needed.Happy listening. | |
| Leslie West has Passed On One of my favorite concerts West, Bruce and Laing in Boston Ma just a killer show.R.I P. | |
| New Magnepan .7s a Quickie Review Also where would you then place the 4 models above the .7 which all have superior sound. A reviewers dilemma. | |
| Recommendations for a modestly priced analog system You can probably use a Soundsmith moving iron cartridge with your built in phono pre, I'm using one myself and find them fantastic. | |
| Just an old fans memory lane. Chicago bands from the sixties... How about Chicago Transit Authority I loved the CTA album very well recorded, it still finds its way onto the tt all these years later. | |
| Overrated/Underrated Yes agreed why so many respond without reading what the op asked seems to happen every thread, he was asking regarding ic and cable.Underrated Canare 4S11Overrated any mega buck cables. | |
| Recommendation for a replacement speaker cable I use Canare 4S11 with a Pass, Maggie combo after reading another members review of them and they seem to give everything you could want in a cable. | |
| Name an artist that had a great debut album and a great final album As others have noted it's tough to top the Beatles and the Doors. | |
| HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL! Very nice same to all. We need that spirit more this year than ever. Make sure to do something for those less fortunate. | |
| Any advice? Parasound A21, Ayre V5xe, Benchmark AHB2, or Bryston 4B3? Ayre makes some very nice equipment too. All the brands mentioned are high quality so it will probably come down to personal taste, if you have the chance read all you can and give a listen. | |
| Primaluna EVO 300/400 Preamplifier owners - let's hear from you With all the great American, Canadian and European made products why would you choose to support China? | |
| John Rutan / Audio Connection Another happy customer of John. I drove from MA to NJ 3 years ago for a used pair of Magnepan 3.7i speakers. John treated me very fairly and put on a great speaker demo while I was there, very relaxed no pressure time. Hopefully I'll get back ther... | |
| Pass Labs x250.8 vs tube amps I have Maggie 3.7i paired with a Pass 250.8 and it sounds terrific. When I can I'll turn it on from standby about one hour before listening. On occasion I've listened from startup and the sound is still very listenable. | |
| Name a few albums which helped determine your musical tastes Beatles, Beatles, Beatles, DC5, Stones and the British Invasion later Cream and Hendrix, Pink Floyd and the Allman Brothers. |
