Kind of a scattered system at this point.. renting a place while home is being built. new music room won't be dedicated, but plan on using quite a bit. it will be 16 x 18 approx. size.
For now, just trying to figure out where to go with the system. I like R&R and some blues mostly. (loud most of the time). The system sounds really spacious but kind of seems limited at higher volumes.. I find myself listening to acoustic guitar stuff and Natalie Merchant/Fleetwood Mac type stuff most of the time because it's what sounds best on it...My wife likes the look of the speakers but not sure if they are the weakest link right now or not.. Cables are not that special.. Audioquest and 3M Monster speaker cables..I'm not really a propeller-head at this yet so it's kind of hard to describe any potential limitations accurately (which would help improve the system)..Any Thoughts?
Thanks! It is so awesome, the only problem is that the room is too small.. As soon as our house in completed, I'm sure that the sound will change yet again...
A new source will be nice at some point soon.. Just need some 'healing' time with the wife!
Thanks for all of the replies. The reason for the initial post I made was to try to figure out which 'bottleneck' was screaming the loudest..
By the replies, it sounds like the speakers... I've been looking at new speakers, the avantgarde trios, wilson wp7' or III's,maybe jmlabs uptopia? If I stayed with maggies, I don't think even the 1610's are strong enough to properly power them..What's the best way to match speakers to the 1610 amps?
btw, I don't think that the grills wreak havoc.. the image is in jetted in, not screen printed.. If you hold the material up , you can see through it pretty clear.. The image is not layered on top really.. NCT audio sells it for their inwalls, I had to get them to print the images on larger material so it could be stretched around the SMG's.
