Magnepan 3.7i VS 2.7X

The 2.7 was very dynamic and could play very loud without that compression type of sound that (I think) on panel speakers. The clarity of the 2.7 is really good, better than the other 2. I thought the bass kept up with the 3.7, maybe not quite as low but with better definition. sorry for the short response i'm on vacay with the family :)

@secretguy You might think this is a joke but I burned out the brilliance control of my Sound Labs speakers and I mean smoke, stench the works. A very power amp like a JC 1+ could easily melt the insulation off cheap high gauge speaker wire. I am not sure if it could do it on a 4 ohm loudspeaker. The Sound Labs approach 1 ohm at 20 kHz resulting in extremely high current. 

I might also add that the 3.7i is a superior speaker in every way.

Thank you very much for the additional information (and for staying on topic), it was very helpful. Enjoy your time with family, no music can compete with the sound of loved ones.

Yes. I do think it's a joke.
