@rbull11  As long as they are biwireable, you can always disconnect the woofers  
Ditching Class A Amps due to Heat - Sort of a Poll
@jerryg123  WOW. Hard to imagine that people thinking they could find anything at twice the MSRP to be better, although, W4S has been beta testing a new kind of GaN amp that eliminates the dac. I haven't found anything about it, but...  
Best Amps for Magneplanar 1.7i Speakers
I may have already commented about the Voyager GaN 350 amp. I just one FS on USAudioMart at a terrific price. He's in IN. Also saw a Project- RS2 dac/pre that should be a great match

Downsizing for Blade 2 and hunting for smaller floor standers
Emerald Physics OB 2-3 series. I have 3.4s which are 41" tall: NO STAND NEEDED. I have 3.4s 12" concentric woofers with 1" polyester tweeters. No longer in production, great prices for used try it, you'll love them.

New MOFI speaker (Andrew Jones)
Many here probably know I have Emerald Physics 3.4s; Open Baffle, 12" concentric with 1" polyester tweeter, outboard XOs. I was shocked when I received them as the XO/speaker jumper wire was garbage, AND, not long enough to get them off the bases,...
