Well then you already know they have no highs so to speak and no lows so to speak, and no dynamics ---- so to speak, now to tell how far they are below the perfomace of your old speakers, put them back in----- ahh yes the trebles back, the bass is back and ---- darn hard to listen to em (the old ones), back to the maggies, too late, you'll never look back.
The maggies need correct set up, play with them, move them forward until the bass is best, not more than an inch at a time, I did say maggies were easy, when they are in the right spot (bass dependant only), do the same for left right, and they MAY NOT be a dead symetrical match depending upon your room.
There better already, now then---- toe them in a little at a time.
Perfect, I think not, your getting there, now then, run to the FOAM BY MAIL store, www.foambymail.com, and order they're foam sound tiles in the accoustic color of your, or your wifes choice and ONE AT A TIME start adding these behind the speakers to tame that MISSING HIGH END, which by now will start to sound just a tad bright.
Uh-oh the rest of the system is showing it inadequacies, time to up grade---
Sorry about that,
BTW, serving the maggies is EXPENSIVE, they tend to like LARGE high current amps, like oh Levinson or (I'm not a Krell fan) Threshold, Gryphon, --- time to scan the used market, a great used Trany based amp can be had for sub 1500 if your paitent.
But then the pre-will show, --- and the cartridge will show, and then the cd/dvd will prove nasty sounding.
And did I mention surround maggies?
Me thinks cocaine or a psychologist is probably cheaper, but then where else can you have this much fun.
Warning: Maggies can lead to loss of wife!
loontoon
Now If I can just find the scratch to come up with the MG20's.
