| What Amplifiers Have You Heard In Your System and What Amplifiers Will You Always Keep QuickSilver Mini Monos. Very sweet amps. | |
| Magnapan LRS Two 15 inch subs is a lot of subs for an LRS. Maybe try two 10 inch or two 8 inch. My 12 inch HGS just sounds too heavy and slow for the Magnepans. | |
| Maggies with a subwoofer system - optimization? Optimize the bass of the Maggies by placement of the Maggies. Perhaps 6 feet out into the room. I like the Maggie bass so I would run them full range and it sounds like you are happy with your subs. | |
| jbl speakers The Paragon is the Holy Grail. It was a console loudspeaker made to the finest specification. Expensive then and expensive now. However it is a vintage loudspeaker and time has passed on. | |
| so this is my system whats next "...so this is my system whats next..."To be blunt. A good two channel pre-amp and dump the ceiling mounted speakers. Then work on perfect speaker placement. | |
| So how much do you think the placebo effect impacts our listening preferences? If there is a placebo effect and I have doubts about that, it is only temporary and will disappear after enough critical evaluation. You can only fool yourself for so long, then reality sets in. | |
| Connecting Klipsch Cornwall to Rotel RA-1062 Something is wrong. Check your wires/speaker connection and make sure there is no short. | |

| Magnepan, Best midrange? "...I have the speakers a few feet off the front wall, tweeters on the outside, and eyeballed their aiming..."If a few feet is 5 or 6 feet, you got it right, otherwise there is more to get from your Magnepans.. | |
| Magnepan, Best midrange? I have vast experience with MMGs, .7s, 1.6/7s, 3.6s. If you want true planer sound, all those will do the trick but the smaller ones would sound better with a better tweeter and more bass. You trade planer sound for full range sound. A sub helps b... | |
| Sound variation from good to incredible? Night time is good but the mental aspects can't be ignored. Sometimes you are more receptive. | |
| List a Condition you know of that will produce Better Sound There are no absolutes in audio other than good sounding stuff sounds better than worse sounding stuff. How you get there is often irrelevant. | |
| Total System Gain Question "...there is a lot of misinformation in this thread how can you calculate power amplifier output..."Amplifier power measurement has to include the frequency, the load, and the distortion level to have any meaning. It's a moving target, you just ca... | |
| US Speaker Manufacturer MOST in need of a Great Designer?? Sometimes a good designer is not allowed to do his best due to marketing and management. |
