Magnapan LRS+ VS .7

Hello All,

Thinking about trying Magnapan for the first time. Looking at mainly the .7s. My room is about 9’ x 12’ and the speaker placement is limited. (It’s my living room with TV and such) Listening location is quite close at about 7 feet if the speakers are out from the back wall 20 inches. Speakers will be placed about 7.5 feet apart. Not much to work with but I have no choice. Actually the whole cottage is only 20’ x 20’. VERY simple easy life, retired. 😎

Anyone have the luxury of being able to compare the LRS+ and .7s? My amp is REGA Aethos. Mostly CD listening for now. Jazz, instrumental guitar/piano, Some R&B, light rock. But, NIRVANA is within arms reach when in the mood.

Can’t really go to a dealer. None anywhere close within four hundred miles. IF they even have them in stock.

Now using SVS Ultra Towers with subwoofer.

Well it seems we/I have a conundrum!

First, thanks to All that have replied.  The LRS+ waiting time is some months and I'm the type that when I decide to buy it, I WANT IT!  No matter.  From what I've read and the responses here, getting the best out of any Magnapan will be impossible in my room.  Even the SVS speakers I have is stretch.  Very imposing in this room.  BUT!!  I'm itch'n for something new/different.  This hobby is a disease and expensive.

Best to All.

Update 7/1/2023

I’ve decided to try the LRS+ just to get the feel of a planer speaker and see/hear what will do in my room. Contacted TMR and they had a set in stock. By the time I got back them to order, that set was sold. Now 4-6 week wait for Black.

Sent a message to Sound Advantage this morning.

"do you live in metro Detroit? "  Oh heck no.  Nowhere near.  I live in Michigan's Upper Peninsula.
