Martin Logan Spires or Magnepan 3.7?

Hi All,

I have always loved the Margin logan AND the Magnepan sounds. I currently have Martin Logan Spires, powered by Jeff Roland's Concerto integrated, but I'm considering the Magnepans, since I've read so many astonishing reviews. I can't listen to them both, and I'm wondering if any of you have preferences of one over the other in any way. I guess I'm concerned about the clarity and force of the bass, but I'd love to hear any/all impressions of either of these two speakers.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, Paul. I love the Spires, and I recall loving the Mags; I wasn't worried about the Spires bass, but more about the Mag's. I'm in toledo, ohio,alas.

What kind of mods are available for the Spires!

Thanks so much Dracule! That is exactly the info I'm looking for. My Jeff Rowland delivers 250 into 8 ohms and 500 WPC into 4 ohm speakers. Should be enough?
