Lkdog - We certainly wish Brian well. Thanks for the clarification.

Carver Amazing or Magnepan?
I've owned all the speakers you mentioned. If like bass with your music you will need even more power than your Sunfire amp can put out when using the original Carvers. The IV version was better but not much. The current Magnepans are much better ...
