magnepan mmgs-buy zero autoformers or stands 1st?


the mmgs sound good with my 40wpc el34 tube amp, but the bass needs tightening up. what would benefit me more, the zero autoformers or the mye stands. i'm thinking both will help immensely, but don't have the dough right now for both. thanks

really?, thanks, tvad, but won't this hurt the amp, or speakers? according to maggie website, they say don't run on 8 ohm taps......
I have to say I'm completely out of ideas to help your situation Cooch. Good luck.
You're not being a pain.

The ideas have been presented: an amp that delivers more current into 4 ohms (and lower), or Zeroformers. If Magnepan says not to use 8 ohm taps, then I certainly wouldn't risk trying it.

So, besides those two ideas, I don't know what else to suggest other than searching the member's systems for others who use Maggies and ask them directly for recommendations.

I will say that I don't believe the stands are going to solve your issue with bass performance although they might enhance the sound after the proper solution has been found.
yep, you are right. and despite some opinions, i really believe this amp has plenty enough power and current. i will let the maggies break in first, then decide. it's been 5 days since i've had them. hopefully, all they need is break-in time. i appreciate your advice....
