    This is one amazing product. Picture quality, audio quality, ease of use unparalleled. Worth EVERY penny.
    • Magnepan MG-1.6qr
    I bought these on Audiogon as well. I actually had a really bad experience(long story). I absolutely LOVE magnepan speakers. I started with MG12's. I decided to upgrade and now Im thinking of doing some diy work on them. Id love any help you fine readers could offer. Id like to upgrade the crossover and change the socks for sure.
    • Adcom GFA-555
    I have two of these. I run them bridged to the Magnepan 1.6's. They are a good bang for the buck, but Im eager to upgrade. Tubes maybe.
    • audioquest king cobra
    I just dont believe theres a difference between on cable and another. Im sure at 20k a cable I would notice the difference, but these are fine for now.
