Oh boy,,,, those Maggie 12s aren't bad at all with a Plinius 8100 integrate and entry level Audio Note CD. Not an expensive system but very nice sound. I heard this setup at Audio Connection in Verona NJ... Not bad at all,,, nice match up. Good sound and not expensive at all. Very good system for a small room and not wanting to spend crazy money. That Plinius integrate drove those 12's nice and the bass wasn't bad at all. Nice sound..
