Best interconnect for bass only
Morrow Audio Sub 3 cables are fast, tight and deep for a reasonable price...60 day return policy makes trying easy! 
Power Cord Compairison - your thoughts?
Two excellent responses so far. If you are not already using power conditioning, then I could safely say that a Transparent Powerlink MM and or an MIT Oracle AC 1 or AC 2 would put you into a new realm of musicality. Both address AC line noise/low... 
Cable Costs Relative to System
Llanger hits on something obvious, but never the less, extremely important. If music is truly the reason behind our obsession with this hobby, then any system that could reasonably reproduce sound accurately would be enough. Of course that is not ... 
Passive sub for Magnepan 3.6r?
Dual subs are the way to go. Jimburger, have you tried putting your subs on sub-platforms? I put mine on 4" thick solid wood which are brass spiked into my floor, with the subs spiked into the sub-platforms...THAT was a HUGE improvement in sound..... 
Passive sub for Magnepan 3.6r?
My wife actually thought they were the nicest looking and sounding speakers we ever owned:O) Maybe someday? 
Passive sub for Magnepan 3.6r?
I use two active def tech subs in line with the midrange/bass panels of my 3.6R's (left and right outboard)and it sounds amazing. Switched my sub cables to Morrow Sub3's, which have tremendous speed and definition. 
maggies with bryston 7bssts
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 al... 
Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison
Thanks guys, for some straight forward discussiion. I didn't really want to start a pissing match. It just get's me fired up when certain principles are ignored and or talked around. one of my favorite small footprint box designs are the Totem For... 
Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison
I didn't wish to harp on anyone per se, but only to shake the percieved paradigm a bit as it relates to speakers in general. Emotion and passion are too often missing from our complacent exchanges. Choir practice can get boring, don't you think? I... 
Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison
It's no wonder concert attendance is at an all time low considering the lack of perspective on these threads. Does everyone have ADD? I listened to the Magico lineup and it sounds just fine. Not worth the price, but fine enough. The sheer fact tha... 
Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison
Talk about ignorance...there is no hope for the clueless coverstory audiophile. The latest piece of garbage with some new age karma attached to it will sell at least enough overpriced units to keep a company in business for a few years. Ever hear ... 
Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison
Maybe you missed my trip down memory lane when I mentioned my ARC referemce setup or the krell Evo rig or any of the other numerous 6 figure setups I've owned. You can call my dealers if you like or maybe my bank account? The older I get the less ... 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
Had to mention, I just read a review of the Apex cables where the reviewer compared them to? Other SR cables. Oh, then they were challenged by the reviewers DIY cables..Oooh Ahhh :=) It's just unfair I tell ya! 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
My head hurts just thinking about SR speak...no thanks, I've demo'd them enough to know they are not for me. Happy trails:O) 
Synergistic New Tesla Line...Any comments?
I also looked deeply into the SR website and the info is slim to none, unlike say a Cardas site (they even compare all alternative geometries). This is Voodoo folks and has taken the path of the mystics vs SR's previous attempts.
