| What amp to drive Magnepan MG12QR's Yesterday, I hooked up a pair of Wyred 4 Sound monoblcoks to my Maggie 3.5Rs. They grab hold of the Maggies like no other amps I have tried, PLUS they are very musical. Their stereo amp is in your price range | |
| choice of pre amp I am very happy with my PS Audio GC preamp/GCP. Eventually, I will have it modded by Rick Cullen. Fully balanced, gain cell volume control eliminates old tech found in every other preamp | |
| The most important link in the chain... My system could be better, but it definitely flirts with very high quality playback. Maggie 3.5Rs biamped, active xover, dedicated line, PS Audio Premier Power Plant, and a heavily modded Pioneer PD 65 stable platter. I had the pleasure of hearing... | |
| Acoustat Grille replacement This makes good sense. YOu could also use a spray bottle. When I owned mine I removed the cloths all together. I liked the industrial look, and it removed a vail. | |
| Another speaker wire possibility at Home Depot??? Depends on your defintion of "CHEAP". Clear As Day Solid Core Speaker Cables (aka solid core) advertises here and has very reasonably priced cables that in my system blew away well know fairly expensive speaker cables. Since they are under $100 fo... | |
| ICE amps need cooling? For some reason my reply did not get posted. I am using a PS Audio GCA 250 on my mid/bass panels. I will move it to the ribbons. I am expecting to get Wyred monos for the mid/bass panels. Underwood HiFi is selling a multi-channel version, which wo... | |

| Inex Innovation cables rids the need for amps? I am using one pair to Cyberlights to great effect. Since purchasing them several years ago my system is now fully balanced, except for my tuner and the ocassional need to replace my source with my single ended back up.

| Need help with upgrade path Sometimes one amp will do a better job than another for controling a speaker. Try bi-wiring, better still bi-amping. QUOTE FROM POSITIVE FEEDBACK REVIEW "When I fired up my system after these changes, what I heard was more to my liking. Bi-wiring ... | |
| What is best amp for Maggie 3.6R Consider biamping. That's where the real Maggie magic is!I am using PS Audio GCA 250 (mod by Underwood HiFi) on the ribbons and a BVAudio (no longer in biz) on the bass panels. Best to use identical amps, but this is what I had on hand and the BV ... | |
| Balanced outputs vs balanced design Defintitely DB all the way! First Overture would be worth considering as a preamp. It is also a SOTA DAC. I have a PS Audio GCP/GCPS. Very reasonable price. It has passed through every change I have made to my system. | |
| Class A amp vs Class D amp Classe A amps require a tremendous amount of electricity to run. Depending on where you live because they throw off so much heat, they can take the place of a space heater.Most multichannel music or movie sound tracks are not properly recorded to ... | |
| Spectron Musician III Signature vs VTL Siegfried? No but a PS Audio GCA or GCC modified by Underwood HiFi, or the guy that PS recommends in their Forum section,will be tough to beat for a lot less $$$$$$$ | |
| HT speaker system for $1000? Most multi channel tracks on movies aren't properly recorded. I find them very annoying. Even the engineers on SM 3 and Pirates failed to get it right. You're better off upgrading your selection of 2 channel and a powered sub with a an outboard cr... |
