In Reply to: Why does everyone talk about Maggies? Are they really that great? posted by Wumper on November 4, 1999 at 16:58:52:
Mostly I believe listener's taste, for example, some people like Chinese and other people like French or Italian food. But I can say most people like the timbre of Maggies than other flat speakers. But unfortunately or fortunately (?), Magnapan dealers are not every where like PBS, Paradigm or Bose. There are still many states which have not Maggie dealers. So quiet a many people have no chance to be exposed to audition the Maggies (MMG program is the good marketing strategy) and the speakers are not easy to match with amps, and not easy to find the right place to be installed. And also relatively smaller sweet spot for the listeners. I had researched to purchase my system for about one year. Finally I decided Maggies, so far I never regret since 6 months have passed. They are getting sweeter every morning. Still I am trying to do something with Maggies, putting blanket on the backside of the speakers, putting speakers on the some concrete blocks, tilting the speakers, changing the phases, adding resisters in serial, bi-wiringÉ.etc. thanks for reading, I like this site very much.
