Replacing My Maggie 3.6R
Many of you know I have been a Magnepan fan for a long time with my first pair of 2.6's in the 90's. As I evolved to prefer tube power with these speakers I upgraded to the 3.6R, Manley Neo Classic Amps and Vandersteen 2W Sub. About two years ago I added stereo Rel's and truly thought the quest was over. Over the years I have tried to move on from Magnepan but could never find a box to deliver the soundstage and imaging. I've listened to Revel, B&W, Focal, KEF, Harbeth among others. More recently listened to Acora, Joseph Audio, and Magico and many other A listers. I came close with SF Amati and even closer with Vimberg Mino, with the Mino's just out of my financial reach. I then attended AXPONA 2024 for the first time and listened too so many I've forgotten, but I did listened to MBL's and I was sold!

If you love Maggies like I do, pprocter is right. Buy the 3.7's Night and day improvement over 3.6's.
For sure. 3.7s are killer! |
I heard MBL speakers at a shop in the UAE. The set up was bad and they were unimpressive. I have heard German Physics speakers at few shows and have been very impressed. You could walk into the "soundstage" and the placement of the instruments was stable. A few years ago I heard a rebuilt pair of Ohm Walsh 5. They were a bargain in omnis. Good luck on your journey. |
