Description

Small media room, love how it turned out. Tried Harbeths with an AR tube amp, a few other iterations, and had to get some Maggies. I'm happy again!

    • VPI Industries Classic Turntable
    Wow, this thing is great. I think my turntable search has ended. I am always skeptical of glowing reviews, and I never did really like the VPI Aries that I had, maybe I never got it set up correctly, so I don't know I bought this table, but it really is special. Sounds like a really nicely updated and renovated Technics Classic table with better range. I love it.
    • Cary Audio Design SLP-98p F1
    F1 version with all the upgrades, it's a great piece of gear, sounds great
    • Magnepan Super MMG
    the listening room was too small for full on Maggies, and the Harbeth's sounded nice, but I missed the Maggies so much I thought I would try the Super MMG system in this small room. Very hopeful
    • Bryston 4B SST-2
    supposed to be a perfect match for Maggies, we'll see. I had the 7Bsst's with some 3.6R's before that sounded fantastic, so I'm hopeful
    • Oppo 105
    I'm so happy with this machine, it does everything I could want and more. I use it as my video processor as well, for home theater. Great gear.
    • Spetlz Level 2 Shielded
    I needed a long Turntable cable run, so thought I would try these, given the low cost/great word of mouth. I was shocked when I used them for my other components before the turntable was hooked up. Great sound, very open, powerful. I changed all over to these. It may just be synergy with new gear, but they sound great.
    • Speltz Anti Cables Level 2
    after my experiment with the Anti Cable interconnects I switched my speaker cables as well. Great choice!!
    • Soundsmith VPI Zephyr
    FANTASTIC!! This extremely well sheilded cartridge, without any break-in, already has been stellar. Gone is the hum from my very nice Grado Statement cartridge, but very similar warmth and depth.
    • Definitive Technology Supercube SC 4000
    Huge sound from a 10" cube. Very fast, with 2 passive radiators. I got hooked on these subs, after using big Rel's, and Velodyne DD's. Great sound and value, super flexible.
    • Apple TV 160gb
    Why use anything else?? Could audio get any easier???
    • APC s15
    does it all
    • Drobo DroboShare
    Infinite Storage and backup for music files, cheap security for all your files.
    • Epson 8350
    Excellent Projector
    • Elite Screens X200
    Inexpensive, yet great looking screen.
    • Gingko Cloud 11
    isolation
    • Mye Stands Stealth
    For the MMG's, these worked really well on my previous 3.6R's

Wondering how you like the Klipsch in the other system compared to the Maggies here?
