The 3.7i was top of the list for awhile. While I accept the title of Rocker, proudly I might add, I am more of a RockJazzBluesProger.
At the end of the day I have zero desire to "compete" with Mike or Steve at that level, financially speaking anyways. I do however compete with the best on trying to get the best from what I have.
I know the sound I like and the Maggies give me that. I like the speakers to disappear and to me they do that the best. Every cone speaker I have ever listened to, while sounding amazing, I am always very aware of where the high end is coming from and its a distraction for me. To my ears a six foot long ribbon disappears better than a single small point source driver.
I have never heard a horn I liked. Have not heard them outside of an audio show environment but the ones I have heard send me scrambling for the door.
On the subject of bass I will be implementing sub-woofers with the Maggies. If there is one thing I have learned through my travels is that evidently I like more bass than most audiophiles, not boomy, just more with authority. Its just my preference. I am a smiley face EQ guy, except I dont cut the midrange down. So the Maggies do everything I want and love from the highs to mid bass and the subs fill in the hole at the bottom.
