Maggies offer a clear picture window into the music, as with the Newform Research. Unfortunatley they both SUCK with rock and roll. Easy listening music..it's scary. I added the Image Clarifier's to my MMG's and it made heavy rock bearable but still bright and irritating. Planars have their place.DM, I might be going out a limb by saying this but a group of guys went to the last CES show a couple of months ago and all ageed that their was only one speaker that beat the Eds Frias's T-60's and they cost $38,000. Remember, the T-22 are the upper half of the T-22's.
The Maggies are great but as far as realism goes the EFE speakers rule.
Audiovector-mellow bass, untouched imaging. He even beveled the grills.
JMR Twins-No Impact but perfect timber. I have heard the Trentes at Mike Matzels house and they had deep bass. It makes me wonder how the Offrands soundMMG and Newform Research-Jazz and classical only!!!
EFE Speakers are the best deal in audio...PERIOD!!!!
