Magnepan MG 2.7

Mike,

Cool setup. I bet that sounded great. I'm still jonesing for a pair of those cool MC1.2KW's. Someday :)
 
I heard them at a friends place. They have such a dynamic ease that's addicting. I plan on making a trip to Audioclassics this summer. Can't wait.

So I jump on the shark, make my first hello post...then promptly jump down and see what's going on in Magnepan land, only to see Maggies running on MC 1.2KW's.

I start thinking hmmmmmmm wonder how those would drive my 20.7s, something tells me just fine. 'and with the JC-1s next to be phased-out. oh my. something else to ponder.
 
Hi Ray!

Thank you for being here! Don'y those MC1.2KW's look delicious. ;)
 
Did I read correctly that those 1,2ks weigh 127 lbs each!?
When my brother was building my new rack I told him the bottom level would have 130 lbs of power amps to hold... He said no problem he would embed a couple 1" square bars within the wood just to be sure. I might have to check with him and see if this thing is warranted for 250lbs! ;)

Heck no, the weight is a feature. Everyone knows the heavier a power amp is, the better it sounds.. :) pooooooooooor class D amps. poooooooor class D :p
 
Just sold my 3.7 Maggies. Truly awesome speakers at that price point. Hard to imagine anything 2-3x competing assuming one has the space and amplification.

Yep you can say that again, poooooor class D 500 watts per channel = 20 pounds and MOST of them sound like doggy poo.
