Jim Winey (Magnepan) has passed away.


Just heard of Jim's passing away quite suddenly, I guess.

I was a dealer for many years.  Jim was great guy and brilliant designer.

R.I.P. Jim...thanks for the panels!!!

  Another legend in the high end audio business has passed on.  Throughout the decades Jim's contributions to this wonderful hobby have been substantial.  May Jim Rest In Peace....

Sorry to hear this.  Prayers and blessings to his family.

Groundbreaking design.  I must admit these don't fit in a dorm room very well.  We had a set of single panel ones, can't remember model number.  I was around these alot about 10 years but never had room when I got my own apartment.  Great sound then and great sound now.

This is definitely a great loss to the audio world. Jim had such a broad range of models to choose from so almost anyone would be able to experience the magic of his speakers. I used to own the mg3as and they sounded good on anything from vintage tube amps to state of the art dual mono solid state. He will be greatly missed.

Such sad news to hear of his passing ( mortality sucks ). I hope he’s bathed in pure hi end audio where ever he is .
