Thanks to all of you who have contributed to this conversation. For those who have them in smaller rooms or have heard them in such, this gives me hope that they might work in my small listening space. I believe in order to satisfy my curiosity on the 3.7i's, I will find a dealer or someone in the central Forida area where I can hear these speakers in a small room with similar dimensions to mine. I've heard the 3.7i's in a couple of dealers when I lived in No. Virginia and they sounded pretty amazing, even with mid-fi electronics, however they were in rooms notably larger than mine. Yes... The ribbon tweeter is truly amazing. Vocals sound very real and micro-detailed and sound stage is also very good. Thanks again ! John
Any Present Magnepan 3.7i owner using them in a smaller listening space...
I am contemplating the purchase of the 3.7i's however I have a smaller listening space. My space is approx. 10-ft in width by approx.14-ft depth (the space is open behind the listening position). The most distance I could put the 3.7i's out from the front-wall would be about 3-ft. If any of you 3.7i owners are working with a smaller listening space, can you offer some recommendations as to how you got your speaker placement to work ? As I understand it, Maggies in general need to be placed out notably from the front wall to give them room to "breathe".
Any experience or recommendations would help me in deciding to purchase or go another route. Thanks !
