I’ve wanted a pair of Magnepans for quite some time so when a pair of LRS’s came up for sale near me, with only 10 hours on them, I jumped on them, and Im glad I did!

Magnepan, Best midrange?
Other than Horns of course.
A few days ago on another audio forum, someone mentioned *why don't you ck out Magnepan??**
I wrote back, seems magnepan is OOB.
He was a bit upset at my lack on reserach.
SEems Magnepan is still alive and well.
In fact there may bea back log for the LRS
Like months back order
Man , not sure why NO ONE here mentioned magnepan's???
Could this be the speaker I've been searching for some 20 years now??
Sure sensitivity is wayyy off my 92db sens limit.
@ a miserable 86db sens
However, conisdering the panel is 10x's the size of dual W18's + a 6.5 DavidLouis Full Range + a Seas Cresendo, all added up, still is less voicing surafce area vs a the Manepan.
I'll run the W18's as bass, If I need extended highs, I'll add a pair of Cresendos.
WOW and under
$1G
Alott less, like $650!!!!!!!
Good thing here is, I have a Defy7, power to spare for magnepan's demanding current draw.
Here is a YT vid showing how you can modify the magnepan,, I;'ve not watched it yet, will do so today.
This Hifi Guy is the best hifi geek on Youtube.
He knows his stuff and has experiemented in countless speaker designs.
He's da man.
I can 't wait to get my LRS.
And gets even better, Made in the USA,, UNREAL.
If the LRS performs as hoped.
I will make a long series of Youtube videos, putting this speaker on the map, promoting the Maggie as The Worlds Finest speaker.
Ck out all YT reviews of the Magnepan.
Every review gives 2 big thumbs up,
Try to that on any speaker on the market.

mijostyn : I don't use subs for music, very content with how low my 20.1's go. Panel bass is so much faster and articulate than cone subs. I have subs for my dedicated home theater and that's where they will stay, just my preference. You state that ALL ESL's require subs, even the BIG SoundLabs? I always wanted a set of Diva's , 10 years ago you could get a good set for around $10K, now $22K, way out of my price range. I've also considered the Tympani IV'a and the Carver Amazing Platinum's. |
I owned pretty much everything out there I am leaning on the exceptional Marten Loudspeakers they now have models that most can afford and top quality throughout. The Oscars are their entry level they have SB acoustics make the ceramic drivers to their exacting specs the upper level get Accuton ceramic drivers or a mix. Ceramic very fast and detailed they use good Mundorf silver gold oil capacitors,all Mundorf Xover And top Norma wiring, WBT copper gold connectors even in their entry level speakers they are electrostatic like fast but with excellent precision and dynamics ,and 10 x better parts quality then Maggie I have rebuilt mags them several times ,you would think they would improve quality cheap huge bottleneck connectors and Chinese Xover parts in 20 years Nope, not good and frame flexes like a sail when cranked up ,and they need a Ton of current for the larger panels no more for me ,Martens much better in every way !! |
