| Has a Power Conditioner Improved Your Sound? Has anyone had a negative experience with a Furman 15i power conditioner? When installed in my system it seem to roll off the top end. It took the ‘ sparkle ‘ out of the sound . However I did like the Active voltage readout where I could see the f... | |

| Jim Winey (Magnepan) has passed away. Such sad news to hear of his passing ( mortality sucks ). I hope he’s bathed in pure hi end audio where ever he is . | |
| Was 1971 the high point of popular music? With all due respect, what about every Steely Dan album from 1972-1980? There will never be a ‘ band’ like them. They are what musicians listen to. After all why would they listen to something they could do ? If you’re unaware of SD and you’re ope... | |

| DAC Under $3000 My pick would be the Denafrips Pontus 2. Great performance to price ratio. | |
| Muted hi freq from Magnepan 1.7 Great idea, thanks I’ll definitely do that. | |
| Muted hi freq from Magnepan 1.7 Thanks for the advice. I’m currently bypassing the fuse with a silver plated ‘ tube’ I purchased from a guy from Texas ( can’t remember his name ) . He’s renowned for modding Magnepans. | |
| Magnepan LRS+ which amps do you use ? * 100 watts or less ** I have the 1.7’s and am satisfied with the performance of the Odyssey Khartago which is rated at 110 into 8 ohms. The Maggie’s however are somewhere around 4 ohms impedance. The amp is stable driving 4 ohm loads and sounds amazing. However you’ll ... |
