Yes it does.

Turns out Innocence is out on Blu-ray here in Japan. Going to pick that up before I go home since I am getting a PS3 in a month or so, and USA and Japan share a region code on Blu-ray. BB

Are current versions in stores like this, or are they pretty much moved out of the retail chain? I am in Tokyo right now and may pick it up here if they are still pushing the bad disks in stores stateside. BB

Thanks for the offer Alan, but I am pretty well sold on it, just waiting for the room to be in the state to accomodate it. BB

It was in the 90's in L.A. yesterday. Backwards world. AZ, a little too far for a demo. Come to L.A. ever for any reason? BB

It works absolutely beautifully. If it were just for me without worrying about people outside the sweet spot, I would say it works better than with a CC. The only issue is how many people you want to play to. I had my MMGs and currently have my 1.6's running as a phantom center, and I am the...

Try Nickel Creek's albums too. Bluegrass trio prduced by Allison Krauss. Andy, where is local for you? BB

I have 1.6's, MC1 surrounds and a 4 channel Exodus amp. :) First off, the Exodus is really a great match for the maggies. Mine is doing surround duty as I have an Odyssey stratos running the fronts (1.6's). But I compared them when I put it into the sytem, and if I had bought the 400 watt...

In spite of what Magnepan says, the MMGs do start to run out of juice by about 80Hz from my experience. I would not cross them lower than that. With the 1.6's, you would probably be OK at 60, although I would no go lower than that. But then, I am a bass head. :)

I'd second starting with the MMGs. Live with them a bit as mains and decide if you want more before moving them to surround duty. As for the phatom center setup, been doing that for 4 years now. If you are listening/watching alone or at most with one other person who you don'tmind having...

Since Dean has not come in to comment on the UcD amps, I'll stop lurking and pipe up here. I started with a new pair of MMGs about 4 years ago, initially running them off a somewhat anemic Alesis RA 100 with a Norh ACA preamp. THey sounded quite good but were definitely lacking in low end...

I'd bet more along the lines of a Blu-ray release being the reason. BB

I'm not the star wars fan I should be. I want more and I know I shouldn't.

Agree with that latter part, but drab? Wow, you went to way different theaters than I did.

Legend Ultimate edition had the feature as anamorphic and included the director's cut as a supplement. Anyone know if the DC was anamorphic as well? (I am 5000 mies away from my copy or I'd check.) BB
