maggies with bryston 7bssts

Elizabeth, I am with you on the McInstosh with Maggies, not a good match. I had the 501's for a ahort time, and they didn't match. But the Mac's did match great with a friends gear, so it's a case of how well they match.

MoFi, I agree on Pass and the Sanders, they are stellar, both. But I think the Bryston Gear is on the same level. Magnepan uses all Bryston gear to demonstrate and test, so that should tell you something about the the compatiblity.

Bryston + Maggies = Audio Happiness.

Owned 3.3's and had a 4b which was ok but not enough to really drive the speakers. The 7B's however will be just fine. I ended up with a levinson 332 on the 3.3's and it was perfect.

If I only had the $$

Keep in mind you should think about the Cardas jumper kit for the crossover. For the tweeter attenuater I use a set of NBS custom jumpers...exquisite sounding treble (I was a drummer so I love realistic sounding cymbals). HiFi tuning fuses will also add value. The vertical crossover is shrouded in mystery but it sure sounds great!

THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR ADVICE
