[QUOTE="alphabet, post: 26685, member: 11"] I forgot to mention another part of my test ;) Last night I decided to try out the pair of B&W DM516s that I still have standing around, just to hear if the Maggies does sound as good as I think. Connected the B&Ws up and there was a definite difference, with the most apparent being the extremely narrow soundstage compared to the Maggies. However the higher frequencies were more crisp with the B&Ws, but bass really lacked. I have had these B&Ws for about 10 years now and I must say I have never heard them sound so good though as I have never had them connected to the current setup. I suppose the "lesser" high frequencies on the Maggies could be attributed to the speaker cloth that I have used which is too thick(designed to rather be enclosure cover than speaker grill cover) and may muffle the higher frequencies, but I will recitify that as soon as I find proper speaker grill material.
