I asked a couple of very specific questions via online chat with upscale about the shipping process and what happens if they arrived damaged or defective as to not be in the same place I was with Magnepan albeit admittedly with a different timeline involved. Long story long, upscale will pay to...

In a meaningless protest against Magnepan the Wharfedale Lintons are ordered with free stands at upscale audio.

Maybe Magnepan should take a page out of this playbook for shipping, had to get one last dig in lol.

Thanks for the very specific response, I have to assume that ordering from upscale audio in California is a wise choice as far as service is concerned ?

@Joe Mac are you running tube amplification with your Lintons? That is something I would like to have the option for in the future and if the speakers are reasonable to drive with “affordable” tube amplification they might be the one.

I’m in the same position, likely with more “understanding” neighbors, none the less I want to be respectful and most of my listening I can’t crank the elacs enough to be able to hear “everything”.

In that case the Lintons are notably more sensitive so that’s a plus over the KLH.

Is there such a thing as speakers that sound “better” at lower volumes than others? If so how would the Lintons sound in this regard?

Ok that is extremely valuable input, thank you. Thank you @Joe Mac as well, whether you are aware of it or not you have had significant input on my entire journey starting over five years ago.

The only thing that I’m worried about with the Lintons is how stable they and their stands will be on my rug. I know there is no way to quantify this but I have a Boston terrier and I perpetually worry about her knocking over something that falls on her.

Hey everyone, here again soliciting advice. My current setup is as follows, Pioneer PLX-1000, AT vm740ml, Vincent PHO-8, Sound Artist Pre-1 (tube preamp), Adcom GFA 545-II, ELAC Debut 2 f5.2. I’ve had this setup for over two years now and believe the next best step would be speakers. I want...

Not only Will Magnepan not pay to ship back to the factory their speakers that never worked, there’s no guarantee once they get them they don’t just decide that I should have to pay to fix them anyway based on “what’s wrong with them”, if all audio companies are like this I’m scared to spend...

Needed some retail therapy, ordered The Rolling Stones mono box

Does anyone here have a contact email for Magnepan that isn’t the service department, I’m hoping to connect with someone there that understands what customer service is.

I’m waiting to hear back from Magnepan about that whole saga, so I’m not sure if I’m in the market for a phono stage or new speakers.
