What speakers have you mistakenly let go and then later repurchased?

@oblgny: Yeah, my current room isn’t big enough for the Tympani’s, so they sit packed in their cartons. But the Eminent Technology LFT-8b works quite well in a 14’ wide room (the size of mine also), and I much prefer it to the MG1.7 I compared it to.

@oblgny: If you have room for them (51" wide each), keep your eyes peeled for a pair of the Magneplanar Tympani T-IVa, or it’s predecessor T-IV (48" wide). It is the first Magnepan offered in the style of the current MG30.7---three individual panels, two for bass, one for mids and hi’s. Only a few hundred pair (fewer than 500) were made, and show up for sale every few years. Fantastic sound from the legendary Magnepan ribbon tweeter, with two large magnetic-planar drivers that produce clean, lean, taut bass. You’ve never heard an upright bass (and kick drum, etc.) sound as real as it does from a Tympani!

Magneplanar Tympani's. First ones T-I, replacements T-Id, then many years later T-IVa.
