| speaker/stand, couple or isolate? Expanding the discussion, what about Maggies? Spike or isolate? I’m thinking of the smaller (LRS, .7, 1.7). The advantage of non-spikes (my current approach) is that I can slide the Maggies “out of the way” as my wife says when not listening. ... | |

| Magnepan LRS compared to the .7 or the 1.7i ? OP here.i just ordered a set direct from magnepan, delivery 3-5 weeks. At that price, I figure I can’t go wrong. If I love them (or like them a lot) I will then invest in the mye stands, and perhaps the mike Powell upgrade. If I really love the... | |
