How many versions of Magnepan SMG exist?


My son bought a used pair of SMGs that are much wider than company specs indicate. Much of the width is in solid wooden "wings" on either side of the active surface.

To improve his WAF, he would like to remove most of the extra width (so they are less noticeable when in use, and can be easily "hidden" when not), but he's concerned about possible degradation
of performance.

Any info regarding this, or results from similar experimentation, please??

I was well aware of the effects of cancellation, but assumed that perhaps since later versions are not as wide, Winey determined that reducing the width of the wings would not degrade the performance that much. Or were other changes made to later versions to compensate?

Perhaps we can work out an arrangement by which the wings can be hinged back out of the way when not needed. My son got such a good deal on the pair, I doubt he will be interested in letting them go at this point.

I appreciate all of the responses.
