Some may recall I threw in the towel on trying to get my 3.5Rs to provide a realistic spl in my room
Been very impressed with the Swan 6.1 Divas + svs sub
well today they got even better, which leads to down this Maggie path.
Please bare with me
I borrowed my buddies W4S 120w amp to hear how it might resemble my own MC 250/500 unopened after getting a clean bill of health from W4S...
(Have been using a Parasound Halo A 23 since pulling the 3.5Rs, and it sounded very nice)
... I am blown away at how real the entire sound stage comes across with the W4S. By far the best example I have heard of system synergy. As real as I have ever heard it, BUT,
He will want his amp back soon.
Do I open the MC amp up, when I only need 2 channels?
Then it dawns on me, the 3.5Rs are sitting against the sidewalls. Can I simulate Maggies own woofers? This is where I am asking for help
The MC 250/500 lends itself perfectly to drive both the Swans and the the 3.5R bass panels
Should I use the OEM XO or...
One of my Behringer XOs has mono- sub controls. (I may have 2 with functioning sub controls.) Hmmmm
Or is there something else I can do on the cheap < $100 to max the maggie as woofer concept
or am I crazy?
I mean I have both the amp and 3.5Rs for sale at ~ $3500 combined. I would probably never act on this idea if the components weren't in my possession
I have a feeling it could be spectacular.
Please chime in
