Re: Maggies are separate rig, my HT are JBL speakers

I have done it, one way, with some effort, and it's working acceptably well, music being the main thing. It is now uncompromised for music, the issue for HT with Maggies for fronts is you need more power to keep it clean than an HT receiver can deliver. I just deliver the HT front pre outs to the music system, so no problem for movies. It wasn't a problem of $$, it was the systems taking up too much room individually, with Maggies liking to be several feet away from walls, as you know. Quite frankly, the sound on DVD soundtracks is not nearly as high quality as you might think, considering the bit rate. The space is mostly used for video (duh!) and sound seems to get definite short shrift. But it's good enough for a movie, though better is always nice.
