Magnepan MG 12 v NHT VT 2.4


I am thinking of replacing my nht vt 2.4's with the maggie mg 12's. The nht's are(were) more expensive. Am I downgrading my speakers with this change?

I have a home theater set up with a REL strata III sub, but I listen to more music. Any opinions?

I acquired a pair of MG 12's recently and am very happy with them. Just a few things to keep in mind...

1) make sure your amp is up to driving the maggies,

2) placement is a bitch. Moving the speakers half an inch will affect the sound. It took me about 2 months to set them up properly.

3) the speakers are not forgiving. Poorly recorded cd's sound horrible. Conversely good ones are awesome.

4) Replace the tweeter jumper. I made a jumper using Kimber 8TC cables and banana plugs. I think Cardas makes jumpers also.

Good Luck.
