Stereo sounds terrible, no bass . It I hadn’t heard how these speakers sounded with Mcintosh electronics I wouldn’t believe the difference. Talk about listener fatigue. Well it was worth a try. My wife wasn’t happy about me setting these speakers up . I told her I might bring the Stradivari down and she said ok you can keep these little ones where they are
. I definitely need a better Amp., Preamp and source. This is going to be fun. Oh unfortunately I can’t ad a sub unless I want to be sleeping in the guest room, well maybe I can sneak a small one in
