Magnepan 1.7


Anyone actually got their hands on these yet? What is is your opinion/experience after hearing these in your home. What about placement issues? I am thinking about buying these. Thanks.

I have heard the 1,7 with

dCS Puccini + Clock

Jeff Rowland's 312 (1000 watts on 4 ohm) + Corus

I was shocked how good they are: huge resolution / definition, I heard such a definition only on Magico, absolutely natural concert-like staging of the musicians, definitevely enough bass hearing a Mahler Symphony at loud volume.
Amazingly beautifull loudspeakers for Classic and Jazz lovers. However I wouldn't recommend it for hard rock or techno fans, not enough impact ...
I have heard them again but this time with all Krell electronic & CD player with top of the line Mit cable ...

big disapointement ! ... clearly a problem of combination

Krell + Magnepan is not for me
