Magnepan 3.7

Here is another quote below from The Audio Beat. The comment makes me wonder if the bass is actually a quasi-ribbon. Some of the post above commented that only the mids were quasi-ribbon on the 3.7. Does anyone know for sure?

"This time I was able to play music from my own CD-R, and the speakers, which even I could dream of owning, grabbed me by virtue of their coherency and, surprisingly, near-prodigious bass. Finally, a planar speaker with slam -– all without losing the glorious midrange and creamy top end that were hallmarks of the Magnepan MG3.6."

Just what I've read here. Always lots of misinformation floating around at this stage, it takes a few weeks to figure out what's true. I've seen several references to better bass on the CES 3.7's, though.

(Is that clarity to which he refers the Brystons, or the Maggies?)

Sounds very interesting.

When will Magnepan update the webpage? The show is over.

Agree with Weseixes that the smaller Maggies are in the sweet spot of the product line. At CES 1.7s sounded remarkably good with Rogue electronics. 3.7s with Bryston at T.H.E. Show were relatively congested and dull. I lean toward blaming the 3.7s, as I've heard Bryston sounding great with Janszen stats. The bargain in planars these days is Kingsound-- which at CES were superlative with VAC.
