LOL) i was totally converted from a 20 year diehard fan of acoustic suspension minimonitors to a planar freak when i heard a $1200 pair of maggies that had the most "invisible" midrange i'd ever heard. lighning fast... and even the rolled off bass stomps my sluggish 12" sub for QUALITY. as a side note... if you want to see martin logans more often in video... watch "friends" one of their apartments has martin logans. how people struggling to get by in an expensive to live in city that can affors logans amazed me. it's probably the ONLY thing i know about the show oo. LOL magnepans are THE BEST value in high end. i liked those $1200 maggies with "entry level gear" more than the shop's $20,000 B&Ws driven with another $40,000 worth of macintosh gear. the B&Ws had more bass, treble and image specificity... but the maggies has gobs of speed and midrange coherency. they just sounded less like speakers. |
