I have a 12x15 room with the 1.7s The tweeters are on the inside at 3ft and other side of speaker from front wall is 4ft. So properly placed you get awesome imaging. Make sure to use magnerisers too. Stock stands are just ok. Also you need a good amplifier with current so you can sit back and enjoy.
Any Present Magnepan 3.7i owner using them in a smaller listening space...
I am contemplating the purchase of the 3.7i's however I have a smaller listening space. My space is approx. 10-ft in width by approx.14-ft depth (the space is open behind the listening position). The most distance I could put the 3.7i's out from the front-wall would be about 3-ft. If any of you 3.7i owners are working with a smaller listening space, can you offer some recommendations as to how you got your speaker placement to work ? As I understand it, Maggies in general need to be placed out notably from the front wall to give them room to "breathe".
Any experience or recommendations would help me in deciding to purchase or go another route. Thanks !
