Magnepan .7 vs 1.7 tech question?


Two questions,

 

1. Hopefully someone can help. Does anyone know if a change of fuse to a Magnepan .7 and 1.7 can be placed in order to add more sparkle/treble to the top end? The fuses that come with them appear to do the opposite. Is this possible?

 

2. I’ve heard a couple of rumors that the 1.7 needs more power/current than the .7 yet the specs of 86db efficiency and 4 ohm load are the same. Opinions greatly appreciated.

No but sources online indicate that the fuses are to attenuate the top end to roll it off, so I never bothered to try it.

p. 9 of the PDF instruction manual on the .7 only appears to attenuate the top end  so it’s more rolled off. I don’t want that. I want the opposite. I want more treble.
