Default PMC MB2se with Mcintosh gear

Well after an almost 4 month wait our new PMC MB2SE speakers in Amarone were delivered, setup and have been playing for about 48 hours.

Already I am thinking WOW, everything I said in my thread here holds true today but even better. https://www.audioaficionado.org/showthread.php?t=42279

- Mid Range is as good as it gets
- Airiness around the Voices
- Bigger Imaging, Fantastic sound from both our listening positions
- A Fuller Deeper Soundstage
- More powerful Low End
- Simply Enjoyable

We added Stillpoint Ultra 5’s under the speakers immediately which I think are much better then spikes sitting on top of some MDF wood.

Here are some pictures from my iphone until I can get some better shots with my DSLR camera.

Beautiful!!! Wish I had them in that color. Have the Walnut myself. Can you share with me the size of your listening room. Position in the room from rear and side walls. Distance from you. Any toe in and if so how much? What speaker cables and are you biwiring? Jumper cables? Any info would be helpful.

Thanks in Advance.

PMC MB2se are sounding very nice. We are extremely happy with our speaker choice.

The midrange is so sweet.
