Magnepan 3.6r or Apogee Divas?


There is a pair of Apogee Diva's (and coincidentally Duetta 2's) nearby for sale. I have just heard the Magnepan 3.6r in an excellent room with new Macintosh 501 monos (sounded excellent). However, I do not have experience with the Diva's or Duetta's. How sonically comparable are these speakers (Maggie vs. Apogee) in your exerience? Is service a problem for the Apogee's now they are no longer in production? Thanks to all for your advice!

Whoops, that was the eAR, I made a fatal mistake, I thought h2o was water Muralman1 ! (kidding of course)
I have heard the monoblock H2O's on the Scintillas at Henry Ho's house and that combination was very impressive! They drove the Scintillas like they were an easy load. The only question for me is whether to buy the monoblocks or two pairs of stereo amps to biamp! I have Scintillas so this amp is a no brainer. Bob
Henry is a very talented EE from Virginia who was persuaded by the members of the Apogee board to bring his designs to the market. The results have been revolutionary in their ability to drive even the most difficult Apogees with ease. He uses the Ice module licensed from B&0 and backs it up with a power supply second to none. He does this with very reasonable pricing with the stereo version going for $2000.00. Apogee owner's are drooling over his offerings. Bob
This sounds very interesting, do you have a contact no. for Henry Ho?
