| Magnepan Placement go to parts express, grab every size 10w .39 cent resistor from .22 to 3.0 ohms(under $15 shipped). After you find your favorite, buy a pair of mills resistors in that size from parts connexxion in Canda for $14 shipped. The Mills are magic, and b... | |
| What amp would you suggest for Magnepan MG12s I can tell you not trying a Emotiva XPA-5, and a mills resistor is a mistake. More money doesnt mean better. As far as resistors, spend $10 at parts express, grab every size 10w .39 cent each resistor pair from 0.22 to 3.0 ohm. When you find the r... | |
| How do the Magnepan 1.7's sound I realize speaker sound is subjective, but I found with a nice sub, and a mills resistor, the 1.6's were about as good as any of the 4k-7k speakers Ive owned. Better in some areas, worse in others. Setup isnt hard once you get the right formula, b... | |
| Magnepan MG-12's They are the same. Not sure if the older 12's had the thinner trim rails or not. I think so. | |
| Speakers you regret selling Legacy Focus 20/20's | |
| How do the Magnepan 1.7's sound I agree, they would have to sound different with the 3 way quasi setup. | |
| Speaker Recomendations w/ Emotiva XPA-2 Magnepan 1.6 (1k aprox) and a nive 1k used sub(SVS). Thats my current setup. | |
| Noob Planar Speaker Advice Needed Ive had some insanely exspensive setups, and my current budget system is now the best Ive ever heard. Our rooms are very close in size and ceilings. I'm about 9 to10ft from the speakers, and they are 36-40" from the front wall. Toe in is about 7-1... | |
| paranoid listener, bad recordings I sold my gallo 3.1's cause they had a harsh sound. I had 2 pair and THEY WERE BROKE IN.I'm now in Magnepan heaven! | |
| Jumpers and attenuators on Magnepans....... I bought every size resistor from .22 to3 ohm. The 0.27 ohm was what I liked best. | |
| Martin Logan Ascent Owners... Tell me about your.. Ive had 1 pr Ascents, 2 pr Ascent i's. Great speaker for great recordings. Rock and any older recordings sound lifeless and dull. I'll admitt when they get it right, its magic. I just couldnt live with listening to only 5% of my collection, so eve... | |
| McIntosh and Brystons: Fair comparison ? I owned the Legacy Audio Focus 20/20's and loved the Bryston sst amp. I heard absolutely no hint of brightness or etched sound. In fact, the Legaqcys are so warm sounding compared to every other hi end speakers, it would take a lot to ever make th... | |
| New Magnepan 1.7 R Anyone here heard the 1.7 yet? I saw a 'review' up(if you call it that) if you follow the preview link on magnepans website. To find the "review" follow the link psoted under the 1.7, scroll down to the bottom comment, and a man posted another lin... | |
| McIntosh and Brystons: Fair comparison ? My experience Bryston sst series on are as good as Ive heard. They have no hint of harshness and attack like the did with the st series and back. If I was going to move away from "budget" gear again, Id grab a newer Bryston again(I won't). | |
| Best pre-amp/amp combo for Maggie MMGs? I have some MMG's and 1.6's. Both LOVE the Emotiva xpa-2, and XPA-5 amps. I had a Bryston sst, and sold it. I couldnt hear much difference, and it only makes since to go all budget with MMG's. Id upgrade speakers before I'd buy a $2k+ Bryston SST ... |
