System Goals/Comments: | Best sound I can afford. |
System Strengths: | Gotta love the maggies, older than I am and still a speaker that makes people take notice. I mostly listen with the Onkyo, but when the Maggies and the Jolida play together people still say 'Those speakers are HOW OLD?' and 'that amp is only 20 watts??' and 'my system doesn't sound this good and I paid XXXX more for it!?!' |
System Weaknesses: | My little Onkyo manages OK with the maggies, but some more power would be ideal. Also my source equipment os getting a little long in the tooth. |
