Any Maggie 1.7 or larger have true ribbon tweeters that are hard to beat .
You need the 2.7 or above for the ribbon tweeter models.
Help needed with new integrated amp.
Looking for some help if possible due to not being able to visit dealers.I switched back and forth between Magnepan and other box speakers for the past few years till I acquired a new pair of LRS+. ( love Maggies wall of sound soundstage)When I decided to stick with Magnepan. I am struggling a bit with the midrange which sound more forward than other Maggies I owned before. Is that a typical behavior for the LRS+? I tried them with Anthem STR integrated as well as Atoll IN200SE and it is the same thing. My room is 15’wX18’LX9’H treated room with a combination of diffusers and absorber panels. I only listen to digital using Denafrips Pontus II, Bluesound the node and all cables are Cardas. Looking for an integrated amp that can tame the forwardness of the lRS+ midrange or maybe the problem is something else, I am not sure. I appreciate all your help in advance.

@boxcarman modern maggies have true ribbons starting with the new 2.7i. The 1.7i is a Quasi ribbon. |
Thank you all for the responses. As for the speaker setup I have them 4ft from the back wall and about 6.5ft apart. Tweeter are on the outside( didn’t try tweeters on the inside yet) My listening chair is about 8.5ft from the speakers (triangle setup). I am assuming both the Anthem STR and the Atoll double Watts at 4Ohm ( not sure of current though). |
