Magnepan 3.7


Looks nice, link below.

“the 3.7 is a 3-way, full-range ribbon speaker with a very ‘fast’ quasi-ribbon midrange and true ribbon tweeter.”

"The 3.7 is available in new aluminum trim or our traditional wood trims of oak and cherry. Fabric options are off-white, black and dark gray. Suggested list pricing starts at $5495/pair for aluminum or oak versions, or $5895/pair for the dark cherry versions."

Mike, I couldn't agree more. I auditioned a lot of speakers and I thought the 3.7's easily played in the Wilson's league. Let's see, $5500 or $17000? Gee, that's a tough decision.

I'm also intrigued by how the 3.7's with subs would stack up against the 20.7's. At the time I bought the 3.7's, the 20.7's were only a rumor, and I ruled them out based on fears about my room being to small. But, based on how much better the 3.7's integrate with my room that my 1.6's did, I wonder if I should rethink that assessment.

Magnepan has just hit it out of the park with the 3.7's in my opinion.
Mn2hifi, congrats on the new 3.7's. Let me suggest that you replace the jumpers and fuses asap. Jerry made me up a pair of Audio Magic liquid air jumpers, but while I was waiting on those I sacraficed an old pair of Anti-Cables and made my own, which were a huge, huge, improvement over the stock jumpers. I also got some of the Audio Magic Liquid air fuses which substantially reduced grain. Both of these tweeks produced immediate, obvious improvements.
I also bought Mye stands, which were an improvement over the stock feet, but not the same order of magnitude as using Mye stands with my old 1.6's.

I think you will find you probably get 90% of the break in at about 50 hours.

I too want to hear the 20.7's. I'll be in Minnesota in May and i would love to stop in and give them a listen.

Enjoy!
