Sure seems like Magnepan & Audio Research are a winner!

One of my favorite groups, Steely Dan, used Magnepan's and Audio Research amps in the recording studio in the 70's. I prefer my Audio Research amp over the Marantz 9's I had. Sure wish I recalled what amp the friend of a friend had, I was memorized by the "Room Dividers"!

Just to further what I was saying in my previous post, the liner notes from Katy Lied (Steely Dan) notes the Double Magnepan speakers and Audio Research D76 amps driving them. Damn, why was my journey so long when it was all spelled out for me...

  I have no hard copy proof such as liner notes but I have heard from more than one source that Bob Seger and Prince also used Maggies in the recording studio.

    If they or anyone for that matter, recorded in room C of ABC Studios in the 1970's did.
