Get a PAIR of Vandersteen 2WQ subs to go with your 3.6's. The way Vandersteen uses a high-pass filter between the amp and pre-amp allows your amp to be relieved of it's deep bass duties which gives several positives 1)the midrange becomes more dynamic and clean (and more effortless due to lower distortion) 2) the soundstage expands and becomes more dimensional with images in the soundstage more firmly present 3) last but not least you have tighter,deeper bass.And that experience has been shown to be consistant in a number of different systems that I've heard them in.Love the Vandersteen subs!!
What do you think about Magnepans 3.6R for me
I am considering new speakers. I am thinking of getting a pair of Magnepan 3.6R. Will the speakers fit my equipment and room? I have a music room 28 x 16 for half and 28 x 22 for the other half. This room opens into a hallway on one side and two double doors on the other side.
My equipment is as follows:
1. Sonic Frontiers Line 3 SSE
2. Sonic Frontiers Power 3 with KT88 tubes
3: Mark Levinson 36s
4. Marl Levinson 37
5. Audioquest Diamond x3 balanced interconnects
6. Audioquest Diamond Dragon speaker cables bi wired
Will I have enough power for the speakers in my size room? Will my Audioquest interconnects have good sound with this setup? The Audioquest interconnects to the amps are about 6 or 7 meters long. I would hate to replace them. I heard these speakers several years ago with ARC equipment in a small room. I liked the sound and I think I would like to own them for a while to play old blues and jazz. I assume I just change the Power 3s over to 4 ohms to use the Magnepans and not use the 8ohms configuration?
I currently have old B&W 801s. I have had them a long time and need a change. I like the sound but want a change.
