Interesting, Myles. I remember coveting the Tympanis - Hell, I coveted the entire Audio Research/Tympani package. But 'twas not to be for lack of scratch. I settled for an SP-3A-1 and a pair of the original Acoustat X's - which wasn't bad settling ;-). Would like to put that system together again now with a really good sub like the REL.

I think in some ways that system, even with it's bass deficiencies, was better than any other I've had (including a system with the ML Quest z's)save the current set-up with 45s, OTLs and horns - which BTW will do all things you describe the Maggies and 'stats doing with the added plus of deep, well-controlled bass and very wide-range dynamics.
