Magnepan 3.7i vs Goldenear Triton one

Good choice Taters, my taste agrees with yours.

Magnepan says virtually free of Chinese parts, they might still be using a small electronic part from China, in which case if you are really true to your position, you should buy another 100% USA made product instead.

My goal is sound quality / value, the speakers can be made on Mars.

I have heard both speakers and think they are both amazing, just curious if one is better then the other if put to the test head to head with all things being equal in the room by someone with an objective audiophile background.

Thanks

Winefix, your question is not realistic. The best system for driving the Maggie is not the best for driving the Goldenear. The best room positioning for the Maggie is very different than for the Goldenear. You're never going to be able to do a fair side by side comparison.

You've heard both loudspeakers, which did you prefer?

Thanks,

I own the Triton ones and am considering getting the 3.7i as my needs are now more two channel. Just don't want a lateral move.

Both sound amazing, but would want to compare them at the same time.
Should be able to use same equipment, heard my Triton ones with Rogue Cronus and Rogue uses Magnepan at the trade shows so I've read.
Thanks

Maggies need plenty of power so which Rogue amp you're talking is important. Sure the Apollos would drive any Maggie, but smaller amps, not necessarily a match.
The strengths of these speakers are really different so cautionary comments from Onhwy61 and others should be heeded.
Given personal preferences are going to dictate the answer to your question, I'd emphasize that Maggies have been a safe bet investment wise for many years and that reputation has got to worth something in terms of both servicing in the future and potential resale value. Cheers,
