| Where are your maggies?? Rooze, what your experiencing is not "the norm" if they are brand new then you'll have a few hundred hours before they sound right- break in is roller coaster ride with these speakers up's and down's. Even if they are broke in if you just got them... | |
| Valhalla vs. HMS vs Jena Labs vs. Shunyata Phoeni KF- Have you auditioned the Jena labs speaker cables yet? I know you love there interconnects but it seems hard to recommend other cables if you haven't listened yet. | |
| Valhalla vs. HMS vs Jena Labs vs. Shunyata Phoeni I have not compared the HMS and the Phoenix but between the valhalla and Jena's(I compared with the Valkyre) I prefered the Jena's- more natural soundstage and a blacker background were the most noticeable differences. The Jena's seemed to be slig... | |

| Just got a BAT VK1000 ? Cmach- When the conversion is performed you will have a VK-500w/bat pak. A VK1000 is just a bridged VK-500 the only thing that will be changed is the front panel you will have two power switches on it and the rear panel will have 2 inputs, 2 outpu... | |
| Starting out Having owned a 9000es it won't take to much from an analog set up to out perform it. The 9000es is ok for the price but is not on the front line of reference quality digital playback. I agree with Twl assesment of about the same price to out perfo... | |
| Just got a BAT VK1000 ? I have a BAT VK500 w/BAT pak and enjoy it very much, I keep looking at other amps but they don't seem to be better, just different and often at a much higher price. I was tossed up between the X350 and the VK500 and am very happy with the decision... | |
| He said, she said She: You should have it crossed over at 87hZ not 82hZ and its slightly out of phase(she puts nose yet further upward)- and don't get me started on the timing differences..... | |
| Magnepan MMG If you have not spent much time with those horrible little binding posts yet, be prepared to- what a pain! Eldartford was exactly right with what works best with them. Magnepan(along with many other companies) do make adapters for spades to be use... | |
| Shipping Speakers, watch out I agree you can not be careful enough when shipping speakers, last time I sold a pair of full range speakers I paid mail boxes a LOT to ship them. I dropped them off they had to build the crates and guaranty the condition upon delivery, to me it w... | |
| Stacked MMG This question was just asked at MUG over at the audio asylum, it was just a few days ago. I could be wrong but I don't think anyone had tried it yet(I didn't follow the thread closely), for the cost of MMG's buy them used and give it a shot, if it... | |
| CDP volume, what's best, analogue or digital? Eldartford- I think he is refering to digital being the likes of Accuphase, Wadia, etc which everyone knows the volume control is done in the digital domain. As were units from the likes of Audio Aero, Resolution Audio, Cary use a volume control e... | |
| Three electrostat choices and my room-- need help Big maggies are great(I own a pair and they are one of a small hand full of speakers I would ever own) but they are not electrostat's they are planer's- similar in shape(sort of) and have some of the same sound characteristics but that's where the... |
