I agree with Pikll about the set up but once properly done it is damn hard to beat, especially the soundstage. I had a pair and seperated the bass panels from the midrange columns, I had a stage that you could get up and walk around shaking hands with the individual players in the band. Mine were biamped with a pair of Audio Research amps (can't recall the number 110 maybe) on the midrange Levinson crossover and one Eagle 7A on the bass panels. The new MG-20's sound awfull good but that soundstage!
Best Magneplanars Ever!?
Would a factory reconditioned set of Magneplanar Tympani's offer any benefits over their new, single panel speakers? As discussed in related posts, I would also be very grateful for additional opinions regarding the 3.5 vs. the MG-20. Thank you to everyone for opinions on tubes vs solid state but has anyone tried bi-amping, especially with solid state low end and tubes for mids? Best Wishes.
