Magnepan Owners


Hi - Have any of you ever changed out the standard nickel Midrange or Tweeter jumpers on your Maggie’s with something else. Or have you replaced or bypassed the tweeter/midrange fuses? The reason I’m asking is that I read a review on Absolute Sound where the reviewer did, well at least the jumpers. After looking on the internet I came across a site called Verastarr and they offer a Magnepan kit which includes jumpers and a fuse replacement. The jumpers are Cryo treated 10AWG Silver plated copper in PTFE dielectric. The fuse is replaced with a polished 99.7 pure solid silver hollow tube. I understand the warranty risk with the fuse but wanted to see if anyone has ever tried the above. Supposedly this tweak takes the Maggie’s to another level of performance. I purchased the kit on Audiogon but will most likely just use the jumpers. Please let me know if you have any experience with either.

Cheers

No I just stumbled across a review and heard replacing the jumpers would yield a better sound
Vera Starr has a totall maximum rebuild of the whole unit with premium external 
crossover, their premium wires  custom ridged frames . A 3.6  can easily beat the 20.series. Not cheap. You would have to call them.
Make jumpers from your favourite cable, leave the fuses, add Mye stands, add a good subwoofer. My upgrade path with my 1.7’s when I owned them. Probably the best sound I have had in my home
