| Spacing Diffusor Panels It’s my understanding that the sound coming out of the Maggie panels, front and back is exactly the same; only they are in opposite phase.i’ve tried Absorption and did not like the result; just deadens everything especially the top end.The diffuso... | |
| Spacing Diffusor Panels I agree, you don’t want diffusion too close to your seating position or speakers because comb filtering can become an issue. From what little I understand that effect is partially dependent upon the effective frequency range of the diffusion pan... | |
| The big DAC decision Buy a MSB Analog DAC. Recently MSB has discontinued the Analog DAC so you may have to pick up a used one. I have heard, auditioned, and researched many DACs in the last five or six years and I haven’t found one that plays music as “beautifully” ... | |
| Received your Magnepan 30.7’s Yet Exactly; the purpose of this discussion is to hear from Actual Owners of the 30.7’s. New owners, please give us your impressions of the 30.7’s! | |
| DSOTM on Vinyl I have the AudioDesk Systeme cleaner. Works GOOD | |
| DSOTM on Vinyl My hope is that Analouge Productions and Bernie Grundman get together and put this on 45rpm.... | |
| Carver and Tube Life http://www.bobcarvercorp.com/silverseven700At this retail price point, they’re a must “try at home” before you buy product for me. Maybe one day... | |
| Carver and Tube Life Al, thanks for that analysis. It’s difficult enough to pay that much coin for a ‘statement’ tube amp, then spend thousands over the next ten years re-tubing it. But, if I understand your comments the tube replacement rate for this amp would most... | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! It’s pretty much unanimous, the 21 demos of the 30.7’s at various dealers around the country have been a mixed bag. It’s a fact that many if not most dealer showrooms are mediocre at best, and some are downright terrible. And it’s also true that... | |
| Carver and Tube Life Almarg, I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on this? Thanks! | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! Yep; and I was told by someone that attended that exact demo that overall the mid/bass was too fat, bloated, and ‘phasey’ | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! I agree. Magnepan’s ‘marketing’ of the 30.7’s has been a complete fiasco. If you announce a new ‘flagship’ speaker in Oct. 2017, why is it you still cannot put a set of those in your room today, nine months later? As a company Magnepan owes its... | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! I hate to dispute Mr. Diller's opinion, but a 15 ft wide room is Absolutely too narrow for 30.7's! I don't think I'd even put 20.7's in a 15 ft wide room.... For a room that size, the 3.7i's would be a much better choice (imo)...My current room ... | |
| The Magnificent Magnepan 30.7 speakers....wait, I don’t like planars! I just heard the 30.7’s at the Denver ListenUp store last night. I was a bit disappointed but can’t decide if it was the room, the setup, or the 30’s, or all of the above. To my ears the lower mids and down to the bass were a bit bloated and for... | |
