| Maggie 3.6R performance dilemma.. FWIWWhen I had an Innersound ESL amp and Maggie 1.6 speakers they played very very loud. It is surprising for a planar speaker but the volume was undeniable. | |
| If you haven't, you should Thanks I will check her outAMG sez:Patty Griffin is one of the most promising singer-songwriters to come out of the Boston/Cambridge folk music scene in the past few years. Although her two albums have been sparsely produced, Griffin's poetic lyri... | |
| Maggie 3.6R performance dilemma.. Just try the Innersound ESL amplifier, you can get one for about $1200.00. The clarity, presence and bass control with that amp is quite nice, if you do not like it you can sell it again. It will have enough power as it is designed to run speakers... | |
| What components sound best with Reynaud Trentes? John I got the Reynaud HP216A speaker bi wire and it is an improvment over the single run of AZ Hologram I used before. They are very defined across the spectrum and extremely revealing without being bright in the slightess, they also are very dyn... | |

| Recommendations for Speakers Reynaud | |
| Best Full Range Speakers For Under $1100 ? Vandersteen 2ce has bass down to 29hz and a full and musical sound. | |
| Magnepan MMG Maggies need tons of break in and it could take months of hard use til they loosen up and show all of their colors.When broken in they will lose the forward and constricted quality and be more relaxed and extended and open sounding. | |

| Which speakers excel at low volume? anything by Reynaud | |
| Which Amp will make the802N sing FWIW - A friend had N803s and the Rowland Concentra II was by far the best match beating Levinson, BAT, Rogue and Plinius. | |
| Which amp is best to drive Magneplanar 1.6's? I used a Plinius SA100 MKIII with my 1.6s and the bass is hard to beat, addictive really. I would not recommend a subwoofer which would be hard to match with the excellent bass the Maggies already have, if you heard that setup I think you would ag... | |
| Magnepan 1.6 and Moscode 600s You could buy a used Innersound ESL amp for about $1200 or so and you would never need more power as it would have 600 watts with the Maggies. I have heard these two together and it is very impressive with presence and dynamics to spare. | |
| VAC - any comments? Good or bad. TAS has had great respect for VAC for a number of years. | |
| Help with speakers for Blue Circle Integrated Amp I strongly suggest Reynaud Evolution 3, which are supposed to sound especially good with Blue Circle, I have the Trente which has the same drivers in a smaller enclosure and they easily are better than my Maggie 1.6s, super detailed with beautiful... |
