| servers Thanks for your comments Mofi,I've seen pretty good reviews of the Olive.Could you tell me in your actual setup - do you control the Olve with a remote-acting device like an IPAd or is there some sort of remote with the Olive that works OK?I would... | |
| which cowboy junkies cd? Thanks all of you for this.I'd never even heard of "Cowboy Junkies."But I just ordered all this new equipment and thought -what good is it all if I can't experiment with a little new music?So I found some new music at Audiogon. Joe Sample and Gill... | |
| Maggie speakers and bi-amping I purchased a pair of Sanders stereo magtechs to bi amplify my old Maggies and I assumed that the new Maggie 20.7's would also be bi ampable.When I found out the new Maggies would not take bi amping, Sanders simply swapped them out for the Magtech... | |
| mbl - is there a problem? Hello Lrsky,I was not bashing MBL. I said I've never heard them. As it is not easy for me to hear them locally I was just wondering if it would be worth the trip to hear them since the idea of servicing them in Germany is not a happy thought.I sai... | |
| Magnepan 20.1 versus Infinity IRS Beta If you are considering each option why wouldn't you also consider the new 20.7?This is not an answer to your question and I don't think the new 20.7 will extend the bass further.But it seems to me you (especially since you are at close to the same... | |
| mbl - is there a problem? Shoot -I was not trying to start a thread - are Maggie or MBL speakers the better choice?I love the Maggies but have never heard the MBL's so it was be arrogant of me to state an opinion.But I've put a lot into my room - not just stereo. New carpe... | |
| Best speaker in the $5-10K range. Details below. Yes he would.I've underpowered Maggies in the past (and it's not good).Better to choose another speaker unless he gets more power.On the other hand with his budget he could afford to do that if he could get the Maggies for a good price.Get the Mag... | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 Nice comments and I agree with you - though the choice is a matter of opinion. My cousin has B&W 800 D's and the sound from his system is WONDERFUL.It's just not a sound I would choose. And he would not choose my sound.I think I purchased the ... | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 But it was interesting to read about the only contrary opinion to Myestands that I've seen.I ordered and read a complete book about how to evaluate and purchase good stereo. One of the comments was that dimmable bulbs will ruin your sound. So I tu... | |
| No, You Cannot Bi-Amp Hi macro -yes - that's exactly what i did. I'm not using an external crossover (although many tell me it's the way to go).It sounds so good with the bi-amping and the crossover that came stock. | |
| No, You Cannot Bi-Amp I don't see why people object to people who know nothing about bi-amping asking questions about it.I know nothing about bi-amping.I think I have a pretty good ear for music and have played instruments for a long time.I recently replaced (for my Ma... | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 This looks like an incredible deal to me.I have my order already placed.I would like to thank Roger - who is replacing my stereo amps with monoblocks (since the 20.7 does not support bi-amping) My only regret is to the people who have recently pur... | |
| Magnepan announces the 20.7 If the 20.7 series is not bi-ampable and if your current 20.1's are bi-amped then it seems a little hard to compare. You can't compare bi-amped speakers with single amped speakers - on the other hand if your 20.1's are already bi-amped that's what... | |
| will they go louder Thank you for your responses. I think my amps are powerful enough - they are the Magtech amps with a lot of power into four ohms. They sound very good with the Maggie speakers. I don't usually plan to play speakers so loud - I think I could damage... | |
| conundrum Thank you for your responses.The dealer played the speakers on the same electronics (Ayre monoblock amp, preamp and CD player - I brought my own CD's).I don't think he is trying to cheat me - I've been dealing with him for so many years and he has... |
