Monitor Audio Studio 20SE vs. GR20 or GR60
I've had the GR60 for about 2 1/2 years now and I like them a lot. I remembered reading on this forum somewhere, some reviewers didn't like the image that the GR60 put out. I don't have that problem. I have them matched w/ a Unison Research SR1 an... 
2ohms, 4ohms, 8ohms, which to hookup too?

Buy MacIntosh gear w/o auditioning?

hales transcendence 5 and mcintosh mc 300 advice.
Hello,When I last talked to tech. support from McIntosh, I wasn't sure what the impedance was on my speakers either. And what the tech guy told me was to hook it up to the lowest ohms available, in this case, 4 ohms. Macs are autoforms any ways, s...
