Magnepan Ribbons and Hearing Loss

Maggie ribbons are everything that's right in the world. Enjoy them.

That's actually pretty good hearing from a test of that type. There is no doubt you would hear the effects from that tweeter.

Measurements I have seen indicate Magnepan ribbon tweeters appear to have substantial output at frequencies well below 10-12 khz where a lot of music occurs, so no doubt in my mind that benefits could be heard clearly even by most older ears.

Elizabeth, You're like a sage with this thread.

Thanks all!

The consensus is that I probably CAN hear the Maggie ribbon. That is exactly what I wanted to hear, (no pun intended).

The Maggie is the best speaker that I have ever heard, and even with my hearing loss, I derive immense pleasure from them! I would consider everything else to be a downgrade.

Now, as for an upgrade, maybe the 20.x and a Ferrari someday...
