Why are they doing this?
Al, your explanation is great. I did see just what you showed from the Emo manual. I also saw in the REL manual that there is a different way to connect them to amps like these but the connection shown in the manual was for a two channel amp, not ... 
Magnepan 3.7 or PSB Synchrony One?
Maggies are hard to drive? They're driving 20.7's with a 125watt at the Magnepan factory. As to to not playing loud, you can sit in my room and I'll bet you can't hear the person yelling at the other end of the couch.

When I heard the 20.7's at Magnepan and then again at Audio Emporium in Milwaukee (A beautiful store and extremely nice folks) I noticed right away a less bright sound. Avoiding any technical reasons could it be simply from the increased midrange ...

Great news on the 20.7's rolling out. Read about others on another forum. Going on my third week of waiting. Hopefully I can have them playing during Thanksgiving dinner.

I would have to agree to audition whenever you can because you really can't depend on what someone else hears. A perfect example would be if you were taking Djexxx's advice and not buying 3.7's because there is no difference between them and the 3... 
Magnepan Service HORRIBLE???
If the person that handles the repairs was unable to work then what would it take for someone there to just explain the situation. "Our person for repairs is out on medical leave. We'll do the best we can at getting to your problem." 
Magnepan Service HORRIBLE???
As I mentioned earlier in this thread, I will be visiting Magnepan Thursday 8/9/12. Per their website instructions, my family will be taking a tour and then hopefully audtioning the 20,7's. There is a good chance that my tour guide will be Wendell...

Magnepan Service HORRIBLE???
I don't think Magnepan is too concerned. In our current economic situation and in a business that has been on a downturn for quite awhile, this company writes on their website that their doing just fine and really don't need anyone to hurry to giv... 
Magnepan 3.6 or 3.7 - The smart choice?
I lived with the 3.6 for 12 years. Have had the 3.7's for the last 7 months. The 3.6 was an outstanding speaker....but not in the same league as the 3.7. I heard a major improvement before the first song was half over. If you can buy 3.7's at $400...

Thanks for the tip, Stickman. I promised the wife a stop at the Mall of America so will have to fit Audio Pefection in also.

This is actually in regards to what Stickman wrote but before I get to that I'd like to offer just another Maggie lovers opinion. I had the 3.5's for a year. Then had the 3.6's for 12. Have had the 3.7's now for 7 months. The 6's, while being an o... 
Magnepan MG1.7 fuse question
Just added 4 jumpers from Karl at Empirical Design to my 3.7's. Have listened about 10 hours worth. I'm hearing a little more pronounced midrange and a bit smoother highend. Nothing earth shattering but definitely a change. He also mentioned that ...
