Image/soundstage and punch/bass


Are there speakers out there (new or used) in the $2,500 price range that have the image and soundstage of Magnepan (my current set up is MG12s) but the punch and bass for rock/hip hop type music?

I’ve not owned Maggie’s, though I’ve heard them a lot.

In the right room, the Ohms soundstage is huge, possibly larger than Maggie’s. They image really well, but not quite as precise as properly set up Maggie’s. They are close.

Like Maggie’s, they have lots of detail without being harsh. They simply do not compress though when turned up. Depending on the model, they can thump in the bass department.

They are not perfect, but they do a ton right for the money. I picked up some used 5000s on a killer deal and had Ohm refurbish the cans.

They can absolutley thump.

a nice route would be to find some older used ones, and update the cans.
