For the first time since I bought them, I've taken the Maggies out of the system and gone back to the Tannoys. Wow. For all the immediacy and detail the Maggies give you, the richness and palpability of the Tannoys is stunning. I will very happily go back and forth between these 2 sets of speakers over the years. (Which will be no sweat, given the ease of moving the Maggies.)
I know that all sounds like audiophile bs, but I'm really not kidding.
Why not, as long as you have room. I would have kept the LaScalas if I had room, but we were moving to a house with no place for them. I tried a pair of Heresys for a month but the room was all wrong. I got the Accustats for the den because they fit better. After I had to remodel the den to create an office, I downsized to NHT Model 1's. Then small Polks and maybe 2 or 3 other experiments. But no Bose! The current big Klipsch are the biggest and best speakers I've had in 30 years.

I've been looking at the Shiit Rykkr amp for the den speakers. If you go surround you'll need 4 of them. 😁 I've done surround sound, from running 2 of 4 speakers out of phase in 1970, real quad, and 7.5 surround AV. Stereo is still my favorite.

Less is more and with 3amps to the speaker they better be hi efficiency .

So tell you meant to say Gjallarhorn and not Rykkr will call it a typo.

I hadn't seen the GJALLARHORN, but yes. I didn't see the specs on the Rykkr, just read a bunch of guys talking about. Wall oven just blew, I'll stick with the Pyle. It's kinda like Shiit. 😁
