Call this a "comming out" of sorts. This post is for Planar Asylum members and "lurkers" who feel that everyone else here has expensive gear driving their Maggies or Maggies aren't worth having without "mucho bucks" electronics.
My current system consists of a Sony ES series CD changer, an Onkyo pre, a Behringer EP1500 amp, and modded MMG's. Granted, my Maggie experience so far is limited the MMG's, but this humble system is the best I've ever had. The pleasure of revisiting music I've known for 15 to 20 years and hearing it sound better than ever is hard to describe. Yeah, I know some will consider this "crude" at best, but with decent electronics and "small" Maggies, you can have a killer system. I do plan on upgrading components as the ol' budget allows, but for now, thanks to modded MMG's, I'm getting a peek at what's to come ;^).
