| Magneplanar Listening Comparison 1.7 vs. 3.7 Speakers Are you planning to setup against the short or long wall? | |
| Magneplanar Listening Comparison 1.7 vs. 3.7 Speakers I think your room’s width is the most limiting factor. My room is a little less than 15’, and I think it’s the limiting factor. The length is 35’ but there’s a kitchen counter than runs across half the width of the room at 24’. The height is 10’. ... | |
| Magneplanar Listening Comparison 1.7 vs. 3.7 Speakers I have. Save yourself a headache and get a pair of Vandersteen Model 2's. Setup properly, and matched with the right electronics, you'll have a much better sounding system. Vandersteens are great, but I don't think the 2 series will match a pro... | |
| Magneplanar Listening Comparison 1.7 vs. 3.7 Speakers I have quite a bit of experience with the 3.7’s versus the 1.7i’s and the 3.7i’s and the 1.7i’s in my own system. I bought the 3.7’s and sent them to be upgraded after 3.5 months and owned the 1.7i’s for a little over a year before that.The 3 seri... | |
| Can I put a 60" tv behind my Magnepan 3.7i speakers? stick some over the tv and find out - if worth the trouble you can then wall mount them I can't fit GiK diffusors in front of the TV on the stand, nor can I wall mount over 3/4 of the TV because it's partially in front of a window. Do you know o... | |
| Can I put a 60" tv behind my Magnepan 3.7i speakers? Yeah I'm wondering how much of a difference diffusors would make in place of my TV. I already have four (two on each side) though. | |
| Can I put a 60" tv behind my Magnepan 3.7i speakers? So I just threw a blanket over my TV to see if it made a difference and didn't really notice any change. | |
| Can I put a 60" tv behind my Magnepan 3.7i speakers? I have a 65" TV behind my Magnepan 3.7i's, but it's almost 9' behind them. It probably negatively affects the sound to some degree, but sometimes you have to compromise. | |
| Store sound v/s Home sound Most dealers do not have good setups, so I’ve had the opposite experience, i.e., my speakers always sound substantially better in my home versus the store. | |
| Any Vandersteen 7 Owners in SFO Bay Area ? I just heard the Sevens at Audio Connection and was very impressed. I liked them much better than the flagship Focal and Wilsons that I've heard. Amazing coherence! | |
| Schiit Yggdrasil Upgrades I hope this isn't true since I just bought one! | |
| Synergistic Red Fuse ... I’m highly tempted to try the Black fuses now that they’re $85 each but am a little reluctant because the Red fuses did nothing on my Magnepan 1.7i’s. | |
| Advice on a preamp No one suggested a McIntosh or an Audio Research preamp. Is that because of the price or incompatibility? Just curious. I just got an ARC Ref5SE this week and am running it with a Sanders Magtech. My initial impressions are that it's quite a st... | |
| Advice on a preamp Your Sanders Magtech Amp has 100kohm input impedance, a perfect candidate for a passive preamp. So the specs on Sanders' site are incorrect for the Magtech. According to an email from Roger, these are the correct specs:"I designed the Magtech ... | |
| Advice on a preamp Any one knows how much does it cost to upgrade from Calypso to Calypso Signature. From what I read, Aesthetix provided such a service. According to an email from Glenn back in June of ’16. It’s usually $2500 to upgrade from a Standard to Signatur... |
