Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Magnepan LRS are the king of low price speakers ,,,,, prove me wrong

Wait times right now it is tough to say whether that is orders or the pandemic and shipping problems.

Yes, with lower power amps you are volume limited but with a lot of speakers, the need to crank them to make things out clearly is offset by cleaner sound at lower volumes where you don't need to crank the volume. The advantage of SET amplifiers vs semiconductors. The tube amps also have 4ohm taps and Magnepans typically are flat loads (not all of them apparently).

Wyatech was the amp I could not think of.

Never been much of a fan of ribbon planar speakers though so my take on how to get them to sound better probably differed from the fans. Although, to be fair, it was the dealer who made these combinations. He isn't wasting tube life for no reason. He wanted to put the speakers in the best possible light to be able to sell them.
