This is the Bryston / Magnepan room - featuring these giant 3.7s and the giant Bryston amps.

I have never heard Maggie's (except possibly 10 or 12 years ago at a Tweeter? Or was it another brand?) Anyway I was surprised at the LOW end. I didn't know they could physically do low end, that is how out of touch I was.

Someone tell us what we are seeing (A little blurry)

I heard some of the 1812 Overture, but they took it off before we got to the cannons

Bogdan Audio Creations - got to play a few CDs in here - these are stacked-MDF-layers with some real wood - speakers with chambers, designed by Petrescu Bogdan. He won a speaker design contest a few years ago in Ohio. He and his wife are interested in moving to Cary, NC.

I was able to hear both the floor standers and the monitors - different sounds in the mids

Basically 3 x Bryston 28B with the Maggies. Bryston SP2 processor next to the 4BSST and what looks like a sony SACD player.

There is something about these Krell Modulari Duo Reference speakers that reminds me of mine...

It's the speaker grills - the Norh Marble 9.0's are silk!
