The MMGs are $550/pair. The matching surrounds are a mere $299/pair and the center speaker is $299, as well. That is ~$1150 for the lot--delivered! No better speaker, IMO, for either music or HT. Here is a review of the MMGs: http://www.goodsound.com/equipment/magnepan_mmg.htm Here is the Magnepan website where you can order them--you have to call them (toll free): http://www.magnepan.com/ Simply click on the link for "An Offer We Hope You Can't Refuse" on the upper left. They come with a 60 (not 30) day trial period. As I have said before, my wife objected to large floorstanding speakers, so I sent mine back (regretfully, I might add). When I called for an RMA, they only asked why I wanted to return them and I told them my wife objected to floorstanding speakers. They were very understanding and I had no problem--my credit card was promptly credited. However, I will tell you that they are very hard to return emotionally. I loved those speakers. I don't know your sub, but integrating it shouldn't be a problem. Enjoy! |
