    Magico M3

    I had Vicoustics design a set of treatments for my room. See picture. It’s extensive but man did it do the job. Subs are gone. Bass quality is through the roof. Spectrum is much improved. The Magico M3’s have been replaced by Rockport Orions but I’m sure the treatments would have had the same...

    Regarding binding posts: I stand corrected. I checked with my dealer and found I was incorrect. If you don't specify dual binding posts, you will get single pair /speaker. He spec'd duals for me to give me the maximum flexibility for future system growth. Eric

    This is the standard delivery configuration. Two sets of binding posts per speaker. I never questioned Rockport's decision.

    Rockport Lyra

    I had Magico M3's paired with MSB mono blocks and a Select II DAC. The system was very satisfying and should have been enough but.....I didn't think I was getting everything from the files I could and I was right. I can't assign the differences in what I'm hearing to any particular component...

    The CH M10's with the Orions present me with audio the likes of which I have never heard before in my 35 years in this hobby. They are end game products. I am using them with CH Precision's L10 pre amp. Eric

    Each of my Orions have two set of lugs for amp connections. I use a pair of Nordost jumpers on each speaker to connect them as I am set up to run with one CH 10 amp. Cincy

    My Orions are single wired with Odin 2's. I also see no value in bi wiring and questionable potential return on an investment for bi-amping. I honestly don't see how the sound can get any better in my room with the simple setup I am using. Cincy

    Rockport Technologies Introduces Orion Loudspeaker

    After a few weeks of critical listening with the Orions, I believe they are the most extraordinary speakers I have ever owned or listened to. Trumpets, clarinets, flutes and other higher register instruments present with an unforced strain and clarity the likes of which I have never experienced...

    The audio quality on this HDTT issue is phenomenal. The music is of course, sublime.

    Rockport Orions with a subwoofer?

    Rockport Orions with a subwoofer?

    Joey Yes. I believe the Vicoustic room treatments cleaned up the bass modes eliminating the need for it. Eric

    Wadax Reference Dac and Server arrive

    Yes indeed. I can't compare it to the smaller models only to the system without it. I could never go back.

    Joey! Small world. Yes you are welcome. The freight company picked them up a few hours ago and they are headed to you. I love B&W's 800 series. I've owned three pairs over the years and loved them all. You will not regret your purchase. Eric
