The MG-12 doesn't go substantially lower than the MMG, but it images somewhat better and sounds just a hint more refined. If the cost differential is small, I'd probably choose the MG-12. Either way they should sound great and match with your amplifier. Good luck!
Regarding Magnepan MMG speakers
I have a Roksan Caspian Integrated Amp and would like to use it with a pair of Magnepan MMG speakers. The room size is 17' x 12'. The speakers can only be set-up on one of the 17' walls and each speaker will be about 3 1/2' away from each side wall. My wife will only allow 1 1/2' to 2' maximum distance behind each speaker to the back wall. Will this be enough for the MMG's? The Roksan Caspian Integrated amp is rated at 70 watts RMS into 8 ohms and 100 watts RMS into 4 ohms. A damping factor of 140 (8 ohms). Current output is 50 amps Peak to Peak and uses a 350VA Toroidal Transformer. Will there be any issues or concerns using the Roksan amp with the MMG's? Any opinions, advice or suggestions from maggie owners is appreciated.
