I lived today a real experience revealing how much a Totl speaker, in this case a MMG magnepan, with a good source and Quad amplification with Conrad-Johnson tube pre-amp can be polluted by E.M. fields noise non treated...Perhaps also other kind of noise...
I will make an experiment and take some 10 stones simply at the right place et watch the surprize of the owner... I will report here... In few weeks...
By the way these MMG Magnepan are a product as such at another level, more sophisticated and better than my top Mission speakers Cyrus 781...But the level of noise was so much, that in their state and installation I prefer way much more my own inferior speakers...This is very instructive of the way and the "How" a top systems in audiophile term can be underused at a level lower than his true potential in a noise polluted environment, unbeknownst to the owner...Even in this state tough the Magnepan are so resolving that they live in a level where no Mission speakers can live, whatsoever my tweaks, and cleaning methods...But when degraded by noise I prefer to this superior Magnepan the natural timbre and imaging way much of my Mission, which are an inferior speakers however... Amazing lesson for me about the power of my tweaks...
