Quad or Magnepan?


Dear friends,

Thinking about taking the plunge and follow the other route to audio nirvana. So instead of cones and domes, electrostatics and planars maybe.

I am using a Ref3a Grand Veena but am considering a Maggie 3.6 or a Quad 2905.

Need your sincere advice, am I downgrading or making the wiser move. If it is the right way, which would you prefer? Maggies or Quad?

Thanks as always.

I own Maggies (20.1) and have heard the GV a lot. Different systems, but of equal quality. The GV are more dynamic and have better bass (WEIN) If you do get and keep them both you will be switching them out every week or so. The GV's are my choice for floorstanding cone speakers. The Maggies fill my living room better. Tough choice you have unless you can keep both.
