Are Maggies Cat Proof?

How about a big-ass dog that sleeps by the speakers?

But seriously, cats with claws love Magnepan speakers. I have never seen a declawed cat need a scratching post, and if they did, I would suspect that a lack of claw equals a lack of damage.

One method is to cut a piece of cardboard the width of the panel and about 2 ft out, one for the front, one for the back, cover them both with heavy duty double stick tape. Cats hate that stuff. Or, cut the cardboard as above, but push thumbtacks up through the bottom, points up. a little meaner perhaps, but kitty will only do it once....

If it is one of the models with a "true" ribbon tweeter then you are asking for trouble for sure. Not sure about the other models. Try asking @ www.audioasylum.com and go to planers section.

As an alternative, I know for a fact Martin Logan are cat proof.... Little kitty decided to climb my left channel once.......Kitty got declawed asap while the speakers whent into storage. Left speaker has a couple of indentations in the mylar but so far no negative affects on the sound and it has been well over a year.

Good luck

THIS will solve your problem.

Just take a couple wires and wind them carefully around the speaker, DONT LET THEM TOUCH.

THen, take the ends and hook one up the a car battery, 1 positive and 1 negative.

that cat will touch those speakers once.

you got to be kidding. get rid of that cat. Your Maggies will love you. Where are your priorites? Cat or sound? Are you a true audiophool? Look, there's adoption, drive a 100 miles away and leave that baby in the woods, euthanize at your local Vet, or just make him an outdoor cat. Oops, I almost forgot: can the girlfriend. lol... peace, warren
