Which speakers with your McIntosh gear poll?

[adg57]

Refurbed 1981 Klipsch Cornwalls. Powered by MC275 IV. Rocks the house with a few watts. Cost less than my phono cartridge & sound great!

 

[william.keith]

Not surprised to see that a lot of folks like McIntosh and Klipsch. Paul W. Klipsch changed his mind later in life and preferred SS over tube amps with his speakers.

 

[Sephiam]

Harbeth Compact 7 es3 + PS112 sub

 

[Beatlebum]

Magnepan 1.6Qr's with the fuses and connector plates bypassed.

I have two systems and one has B&W and the other my old ADS L - 710. Both sound great.

Interesting to see that outside of B&W, Klipsch has the biggest following.

Also good to the overwelming majority have other speakers than on the list. This just adds up to great variety.

Welcome Screwsquirel!!

I'll bet the 4430's sing nice with the 2255! :thmbsp: :yes:

Pete

Thank you everyone!

Yes, JBL 4430 and McIntosh 2255 sing very well indeeed...

I also have:
- McIntoch C34V pre-amp
- Teac VRDS 25 CD player
- Thorens TD 124 II turntable
- SME 3012 arm
- Denon DL 103 cartridge

When I had my MC7200, I drove Magnepan MGLR1s...totally awesome combo.

When I borrowed my bro's MC2100 (and later my own MC250), I was driving a pair of Klipsch Cornwalls...awesome performers as well.

Being laid off and bankruptcy changed all that...sigh!

I've gone a totally different direction when I slowly rebuilt my new system, but with Mac amps I could live quite comfortably with either Maggies or Klipsch horn-loaded loudspeakers...maybe someday I'll do it again.

I am surprised that no one mentioned the Anthony Gallo speakers. They are quite a bargain at $3k and were much talked about a few years back. :scratch2:

 

[exracer]

Magnepan 1.6Qr's with the fuses and connector plates bypassed.

For the next best 500 dollar upgrade get some Mye stands. I had to readjust my speaker position due to the increased bass output! :thmbsp:

Poll allows only 10. :tongue:

 

[2uberoller]

switch my vote from magnepan to sonus faber as I voted before I had the SF

 

[mrz80]

Yeah yeah, nothing like a little mac on mac action.

I can vouch for that, more than most


Oh, oh yeah, speakers... clinging tenaciously to the past - Mc Stereotech3s on the main system, and those boxy sounding little Lahtis in the office. For now at least.

 

[MJSNet]

Currently, Ohm F5 Series 3's

 

[Slyboots]

Add another KEF user - C60's with my C26/2105. Great sound.

 

[ByteWrangler]

Klipschorns and 50W/channel of McIntosh power, baby! They'll fill a large room with great sound!
