RE: The correct magnepan for my room

Posted by Satie on December 31, 2016 at 16:54:40:
2 things to add.

The room is too big for a maggie alone, you will need a pair of subwoofers. If allowed, say with camouflage to make it look like soji screens you can use a Tympani IV or IVa in there.

The 8008 will power up a maggie well. You might have to work on the tonal balance with the resistors on the tweeters to tame the high end of the Aragon. You can also take it to a technician and have him jack up the bias current further into class A. That would tame the top end.

With subs you can get away with a 200 watter Without subs in that size room you will need over 500W at 4 ohms, preferably closer to 1kw.
