Magnepan 3.7

Shasonmusic,

Your comment does not even justify a reply so this will be the first and last remark toward your allegations.

Clearly you are hurt by my very truthful comments about the brand of speakers you own. I assume you do not like my comments about the build quality ,but they are 100% accurate.

Your comment does not even justify a reply so this will be the first and last remark toward you allegations.

Not sure if I can post links to my dealers so I will not. One of the dealers (yes one of them I have several in my area) has had or has The Sasha, Sophia 3, Marten Logan CLX, Thiel 3.7, Magnepan 20.1, 3.6, 1.7 all on the floor. All of which I have demoed there or at my other local dealers. It is not a hole in the wall type of shop. I bought my Thiels from them through audiogon... feel free to look at my history.

Frankly I do not own magnepans because I have found speakers that sound as good (better IMO) and are build MUCH better with a minimal cost difference.

I believe I even wrote about my audition comparing the Magnepan 1.7 to the CS2.4 on audiogon back when I bought them. I am not going to look it up though, you have waisted enough of my time.

What's the point of stating the comment doesn't justify a reply and then offering a rather extensive reply?

In your opening remark, you just contradicted yourself. If you in your wisdom felt my post did not deserve a response, then why even grace it with a parting shot full of a self righteous defense of your views.
Nevertheless, it was amusing..
If you want to be petulant, at least be accurate.
Firstly, your comments cannot be defined as truthful...they are your opinion, just as my initial post was.
Secondly, please be accurate in your syntax and spelling... I do not "waist" anyone's time. This carelessness is a recurring theme in all your posts.
Your disregard to the above demonstrates to me the true value of any opinions you may hold on any subject..sloppy and incomplete
Now that..is how you pen a last response

are the 3.7 worth $3,500 more than the 1.7 try to decide if another bat vk-55 amp will be a better investment sounds good with one vk-55 will 3.7 maggies sound better or should i just get another bat for $2,000 thanks

Not sure about the 3.7's yet; still in the early auditioning stage. However, I can say that when I compared the 3.6's to both the 1.6's and the new 1.7's I preferred the 3.6's ( by a substantial margin). The 1.6's just did not do it for me at all...I think that the 3.6's are far better in every parameter. Also, I would rather own (and I do) a used pair of 3.6's over a new pair of 1.7's... Just my opinion; YMMV.
