| Magnepan 3.7i vocals sound harsh Did more critical listening and the problem seems to be rock CD's and lp especially during chorus singing. Even the new Chris Hillnan is awful( does any one else have this).Jazz, opera and all other types of vocals and music are great at any volu... | |

| Magnepan 3.7i vocals sound harsh I don't have the resources to switch out pieces, I may try to borrow a friends amp.Prior to the 3.7i I had 1.7i and 1.7 which sounded smooth. The 3.7i brings more of everything but the harshness in the vocals are aggravating. | |

| Eric Clapton reveals this week of his declining health For my money Jeff Beck is a much better guitarist. Clapton had his moments that ended with Derek and the Dominoes but for a consistent body of work I'll take Beck. | |
| Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? The Parasound 2.1 integrated give excellent bang for the buck. Everything you need in one place. | |
| Magnepan's 1.7i c/w 2 DWM bass panels v 3.7i I had a pair of Emo xpa 1l monos that kept blowing driving my Maggie 1.7 not sure on how the xpa-2 would match up. Switched to a Parasound Halo and everything is great. Also upgraded to 3.7i a big step up from the 1.7.You can go used and save a fe... |
