It is all in the ears of course, but...I think we all do listen to music after all so I am going to ask fo opinions on this. I went to listen to the Vandersteens 2 CE Signatures, and although they were superbe, I then listened to the Magnepans 1.7. My goodness, ....I only had to close my eyes and allow my imagination to work. David Oistrakh was only two yards away from me playing Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto. The clarity of each chord was absolutely life-like. Then we tried Carmen's "Pres des remparts de Seville" and the vocals of Maria Callas were just as impressive. Yes the Vandies were great but at a price slighly lower, I am ready to say that the Maggies 1.7 would beat any competition. I wonder if the work of Peter Gunn with the MMG's would actually bring results similar to the 1.7 model. Anyone had the chance to listen to both the Magneman 1.7 and the modified MMG's? I would appreciate the feedback.
Thanks
