| best amp for Magnepan 3,7 I am using an Audio Research D400II to drive my 3.7s. It has tons of current with 400 watts to the 4 ohm load and is very neutral IMO. Tried two of them bridged for mono since I was bi-amping an earlier model, but that makes them a 2 ohm load and ... | |
| Maggie speakers and bi-amping Can your amps be bridged?Previous to my recent purchase of 3.7s, I was bi-amping a Pair of MGIIIAs with a pair of Audio Research D 400 mk2s so my only experience in bi-amping Maggie's is with a very dated model. Used a Marchand XO. The bi-amping m... | |
| Magnepan 3.7 Browns fan,Thanks, I actually have been using anti able jumpers for a few years on my MGIIIAS but may try the audio magic since you have experience with both.When I sold them I kept the anti able jumpers :-)Still debating the Mye stands. My buddy ... | |
| Magnepan 3.7 My 3.7s arrived and must say an improvement over my old bi-amped MGIIIas. The tweeter no longer seems so distinct from the total speaker if that makes any sense. Need some time for the to break I and still want to swap my old Velodynes subs for a ... | |
| running audio research d300 bridged Forgot to add the the guy at Audio Research said that they could drive them in bridged mode but he did say that this series of SS amps would be the only ones that they would say could | |
| running audio research d300 bridged I have D400 mk IIs that I have been using to bi-amp older Maggie's but have new 3.7s on way which cannot be bi-ampedThe original review of the amp said they could drive 2 ohm loads delivering the full 800 watts and suspected they could drive the 1... | |
| Magnepan 3.7 I live about 15 minutes from Gifted Listener in Centreville Va which is outside DC more mid-Atlantic than southeast. Tom Unger the owner has carried Maggie's for years and as of two weeks ago he had his floor 20.1s still. He had them on sale when ... | |
| Magnepan 3.7 I also listened to to 20.1 but am buying the 3.7 although I may wait to hear the 20.7 or insist on full trade in.The 20.1 will go deeper but using subs with 3.7 takes away any advantage in that area acknowledging that sub choice ans set up are cri... | |
| Magnepan 3.7 I finally got to hear the 3.7s and have to say, after hearing Wilson's and Avalons In the last month, when it comes to low level resolution at least, the Maggie Ribbon kills both. Of course just one man's opinion.Listening to Diana Kralls "look of... | |
| Avalon Acoustics vs Wilson Audio I listened to the Wilson Sophia 3 and the Sasha along with the Avalon Indra and Isis at the same showroom last week.Since I have been a Magnepan owner for the last 25 years and am about to audition both the 3.7 and 20.7 I wanted to listen to the n... | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 Nottop,My original MGIIBs went to my dad and he still has MMGs in his condo. We do not have children so my dad always benefits from my upgrades. Nice keeping the Maggies in the family isn't it. :-) | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 I am waiting for the 20.7s to arrive at the local dealership so as of yet I have not heard them. I am auditioning the 3.7 in a couple weeks tough.Always loved Maggie's but before spending 14k or so, I wanted to listen to some non-panel speakers. Y... | |
| No, You Cannot Bi-Amp I ran my Maggie IIIas with an Audio Research D400 for years, then bought another D400 and used the XO1 passive crossover but quickly got myself a Marchand electronic crossover which cross to a pair of subs below 50hz then uses same slopes as Magne... | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 I hope Gifted Listener in Centreville gets them early on so I can hear both the 3.7 and 20.7. If the 20.7 can be bi-amped that would give them a huge advantage in my situation.I still have my MGIIIAs which have been refurbished a couple time over ... | |
| Maggies with no Sub: Fantastic surprise After reading through this thread, I am wondering about the crossover frequency I chose for my Marchand XM44 3 way which is expected in next few days. I still use my Maggie IIIa's and recently acquired a second Audio Research D400mkII to bi-amp. I... |
