raymonda,     There's one like you in every group.     Sometimes it's better to resist posting if you have no constructive input.     I think your now the undisputed leader for Audiogon's 2017 WORST POST OF THE YEAR award!Congrats Sunshine,  Tim 
Others experience re: subs and Magmepan 20
imdoc,    Forgot to answer one of your questions: Whether I thought the $3,000 cost of the  DEBRA was worth the cost?      Unequivocally, yes.  I honestly can't count the number of times I've been listening to music and the music calls for deeper ... 
Others experience re: subs and Magmepan 20
imdoc,     I'm also a Magnepan user but not with quite as good of a model as you own. I've had a pair of older 2.7qrs for about the last 25 yrs  that are rated to go down to 37 hz while your 20Rs are rated as going as low as 25 hz.     I've been s...

Hi ctsooner,    You know my thoughts but it's, of course, your choice.     I hope your system sounds great to you no matter which direction you decide upon.Later, Tim 
Too Much Power?
Hi northernfox,     At your budget you also may want to consider the D-Sonic M3-1500-M mono-blocks.  Here's a rave review from 6Moons of the M2-1500-M which are the exact same amps as the M3 per D-Sonic owner Dennis Deacon.http://www.6moons.com/au...

Hi ctsooner,     No problem, we're cool.Tim 
Choosing Sub-woofers. Please advise ASAP.
Hi enginedr1960,  "Tim you know you can lead a horse to water but you cant make him drink "  Exactly right.  My sense is that many agree with the DBA concept and want really good bass response in their rooms  but find it difficult to drink/accept ...

ctsooner, " What you completely fail to understand is that 99% of anyone, will not be able to use 2 other cabinets in their room, especially since they too have to be placed in specific positions based on your theory."       I'm beginning to feel... 
Too Much Power?
northernfox, The real enemy of any speaker is not too much power but distortion and clipping. The Focal Alto Utopia Be speakers have a rated maximum input rating of 250 watts but can handle significantly more as long as it’s clean power. My older ... 
Choosing Sub-woofers. Please advise ASAP.
Hi ctsooner,     " That said, dialing in the built in bass units using the EQ on each will give you probably 99% (always subjective) of what you would get by adding two more 2W subs and dialing them all in.  The dealer is doing the set up for me ... 
Do you think you need a subwoofer?
Hi Doc,     I believe you live in a Manhattan postage stamp so lack of space and the need to listen at lower volumes are issues.  I hear the penthouse at Trump Towers may be available soon. Just something to consider if you want more room, fewer n... 
Do you think you need a subwoofer?
Hi Doc,     I like your commitment to all out sound quality by using your tube VTL 100s for both 2 channel and HT.  I just have a few questions:1. Have you tried lowering the sub crossover frequency  closer to the 50 hz lower frequency cutoff on y...
