Magnepan 3.7 or PSB Synchrony One?

Thanks Audiooracle
I knew they are entirely different sounds.
I like the larger image and speed of planers but if they are too diffuse that bothers me a bit. They are also more power hungry raising the entry fee. If the PSB presents a small image that's not likely to be my best choice either.
I've owned 1.6's and found them a little on the 'warm' side for my tastes along with marginal bass (I know the bass can be corrected if carefully matched with a sub)
They seemed to also lack some of the dynamics of conventional designs. I can't say any of that would apply to the same degree with the 3.7 though.

"The Maggies present a huge diffusive image, stunning high end detail, boomy bass, don't play loud, difficult to drive"
The bass of the 3.7 is anything but boomy.

The Synchrony One's you will want to listen to for hours, the Maggies you will not. I find all Panel speakers fatiguing compared to box speakers.

Maggies are hard to drive? They're driving 20.7's with a 125watt at the Magnepan factory. As to to not playing loud, you can sit in my room and I'll bet you can't hear the person yelling at the other end of the couch.
