I've been lurking here for a few months that started when the LRS found their way into my YouTube feed. It put a bug in my ear to give these speakers a listen, so before Christmas I auditioned the .7s at my local dealer and ordered them on the spot. I'm kind of a Klipsch freak and was ready to buy one of their heritage line speakers but felt like a change. Anyway I have the .7s with the MC1s as my rears and I've been enjoying my Magnepan speakers quite a bit. Two channel listening, even not set up as suggested, is still providing me with hours of joy. I am using an MMGW as my center which is now mounted on my wooden TV console. It is off the wall about five to six inches now and sounds much better than on the wall angled away from the wall. I think it sounds fine, but feeling like a better speaker in their line will sound even better. The question I have is do you think upgrading to an MC1 for the center (considering I believe the MMGW is doing a good job even though most say it will not work) will be worth the extra cost? The pic shows the grill cloth stuck to the Mylar before I got the courage to use tape to pull it away. |

is that a vintage console? Looks great! I'm a mid-century design guy at heart. |
