What is the minmimum room size for Magnepan? Lots of good amp choices out there - Classe, Aragon, Marsh Sim Audio and Bryston to name a few. Regardless of which Maggie model they all like to have lots-o-current running through them. A Bryston 3B would be plenty powerfull enough for a pair of... | |
Fellow Canucks, help me out svp. Thanks, Jeff Jeff - IMHO the choice of courier service and all the ducks in a row should have been liuned up before the tuner left for its return trip. Also the documentation would appear to be insufficient as the unit should have been noted as defective and b... | |
Need amp/pre recommend for Maggie 3.5s Used Rogue 66 and a used Bryston 4B-ST can be bought for less than 2K with change to spare. You might even be able to find a "Magnum version" of the 66 within your price bracket. The Rogue will warm up the Bryston amp nicely and the Bryston amp wi... | |
any decent amps 17" wide? ..(nt) | |
Pre-amp decision I have owned both the Rogue 66(non-magnum) and the BP-25 both being married up to my 4B-ST. The BP-25 is brutally revealing and accurate. The Rogue on the other hand offers a warmth that gives me more listening pleasure for longer periods of time.... | |
Cheap Sony SACD players: best STOCK/MODified Trich727 - I've heard a stock 9000ES and while I'd give it a the edge in stock form vs my previous stock 333ES, after the 333ES was modded it seriously trounced the stock 9000ES. Now modded vs modded may be an entirely different story... | |
Cheap Sony SACD players: best STOCK/MODified G13 - Yes to your 1st statement. All sacd discs that are noted as multi-channel also have a 2 channel layer so one can play it on a 2 channel player. The problem arises when a 2 channel player begins to negotiate its way onto the multi-channel lay... | |
MG12/QR You can find a used Bryston 3B-ST within your budget which would be a nice choice assuming you don't require an integrated amp... Lots of synergy with Bryston and Maggies! | |
Cheap Sony SACD players: best STOCK/MODified I own a modded 333ES and can attest that mods do offer a significant upgrade to the stock units - but its my impression that the redbook presentation realized larger benefits than the SACD section.In your price zone you could get one of Matt's (SA... | |
Polarity Invertng Rogue 66 W Bryston 4BST Prec.. are you saying that after the Magnum upgrade Rogue advised you to invert the cables??? I am using a stock 66 that is leaving for the Magnum upgrade next week and would like to know what to expect... | |
Montreal Symphony While I don't know all the details Mr. Dutoit was known for his ability to be "tough" with his musicians and apparently one or more of them lodged a complaint some time ago. I guess the incident was reviewed by the powers that be and Charlie was f... | |
Neutral preamps Bryston BP-20 and BP-25 (same as 20 but with a remote) are very neutral. | |
Which Preamp for Bryston 4BST. BP-25 or Rogue 66 Also have a 4B-ST and have owned both those preamps and still have the Rogue 66. Not as detailed as the BP-25 but the tube "warmth" makes the listening hours just slip by... | |
