Amazing feature set. Sounds better than the P5 it replaced. I’ve never used the dac or phono sections but the preamp section is very transparent.

I’ve had Magnepans (in one iteration or another) for the past 30 years. I’ve tried a few different “box” squawkers over the years but I just can’t shake my love of the Magnepan sound.

Does it do anything?….dunno.

Roon core

Drives the Maggie’s with ease. Also great for lower listening levels. These have shown me what the Magnepan 1.7i is truly capable of. Lots of detail, resolution and presence. Satisfyingly easy to listen to for long listening sessions. These replaced an Odyssey Audio Stratos (with Kismet upgrade) which was a real turd.

2 subwoofers. “Double your pleasure, double your fun”. These blend well with the Magnepans.

Love this DAC. Silky smooth yet detailed. No DS grunge here.

Well made cables.

Glorified surge suppression

Super stiff. Don’t sound any different than the stock PCs that came with amps, imo.

After 2 years of trying these in different locations around the room, my ears have gravitated them to the corners in the bar area and two panels directly behind my listening position. I took no measurements. Just trial and error until my ears were happy.:D

3 x 3’x4’ panels w/ rock wool. Covered in sarong material. Made w/ 2x4s. I had to remove the rock wool because it sucked the life out of the music. My imagination tells me that the 12 2x4s used to build the panels act as sort of  on wall baffles. Like I said, probably just my imagination. :)

Roon endpoint to dac. Impressive features and performance at this price point.

Myesound stands. These replaced the magnarisers which made no sonic improvements over the stock Magnepan feet. The Myesound stands made a noticeable sonic improvement in soundstage imaging and focus.These are right proper stands for the Maggie’s. They’re keepers.
