Magnepan 3.6 ribbon tweeters


Is any one else having trouble with their Magnepans? I have replaced 4 ribbon tweeters since August. Magnepan is no help at all, and says, "That's what you get for buying a ribbon tweeter."- Wendell Diller. Its funny I owned the orginal MG-3s for over 15 years and never blew a tweeter, using the same electronics. I'd welcome any advice or feedback.

Well, aside from one fuse replacement, I've never had any trouble out my old 3.5s or MG20s. I ran my 3.5s with Bryston and Krell amps at one time oranother, and the MG20s with a Pass X350. That last combo will play louder than I care to listen, and with never a problem with fuses or tweeters.

WRT to Magnepan in general and Mr. Diller in particular, I must agree with the other posters who've encountered a profound lack of regard for the customer. If their products weren't so damn good, I'd tell this company and Mr. Diller to stuff it where the sun doesn't shine. Mr. Diller flat out lied about whether or not they were working on an update of the MG20R and then evinced a 'too bad, tough' attitude when called on it. I can only hope that Magnepan is acquired by someone with some sense of customer relations, and that Mr. Diller is relegated to his true calling - a career in the food service industry.
