Hello,
New to this forum, would like to introduce myself,
I am mid 40s Audiophile and hobbyist, My father passed his appreciation for home stereo down to me.
He was a big fan of Jim Winey and Nelson Pass.
He gave me his old pair of Magnepan MG2Cs and a Hafler DH500 with an NAD preamp. I since rebuilt and upgraded the MG2Cs upgraded the crossover, added a Fountek ribbon tweeter with a L-PAD for brightness adjustment. Incredible upgrade adding the Ribbon tweeter. I now have a refurbished Threashold Model 4000, a Threshold FET-2 preamp, Emotiva XDA-2 Gen 2 DAC, Rythmik F12 Servo Subwoofer. I have designed and built my own speakers from scratch. I enjoy working on passive crossover networks.   I see Danny Richie posts on this forum which is why I signed up. I just ordered his 1.6QR crossover upgrade kit for a pair of 1.6QRs I am buying today. I think I am going to document my progress and post a video step by step on seeing the speakers for the first time to, putting the plan together on what I am going to do to them, step by step the whole way.
