RE: Magnepan color recommendation







An inmate Ahendler (sp?) Loved his Gilmore Raptors with his 3.6's. He now is running David Berning amps.

I had the Bel Canto EVO 200.6 for 12 years, that being the tripath design and not full blown class D. They ran 1.6's and my 3.7's. They were great amps for the 1.6's, not quite the control on the 3.7's.

I went to Audio Perfection in MPLS, twice and heard the Bel Canto M600's with the 3.7i's, in an all Bel Canto rig and using the their DAC as a Pre...

Very 3 dimensional, imaging is spot on, huge sound stage, tone, textures, everything was there.

Now, I had my 3.7's upgraded to the 3.7i's...(if you search my Moniker, I wrote volumes on this. Before I did the upgrade, I bought the Magtech.)

The Magtech is truly a beast. (have also posted volumes on this amp)
Like Audiophilander, it just very neutral, no grain, it will show you all the upstream warts. I never understood the term "effortless power" until that amp showed up. At any volume, it does not change character and just pumps sound, like it is 6 inch pipe of power feeding the Maggies.

I really cannot tell you the differences between the Bel Canto M600's, But would love to do a side by side in my own rig with the Magtech.

Color wise I am a modernist, the aluminum sides with the gray fabric is just dead sexy, IMHO..

Subs are gone, fake silk fichus work as great diffusors and some absorption. The speaker placement is the HK/Limage. Ask Sadie about that, google or search my moniker.

Congrats on the 3.7i's, you will enjoy them...
take care
Mark
