Never had the chance to audition a pair of Magnepan all these years.
When the 1.7 was available for demo (happen to be my Meridian dealer), heard it and one word best describe - Unforgettable - especially the price. My friend immediately bought a pair (though I do not like the black trims. Wood I like more). In comes the 3.7 a week later and I must say I am smitten. Deep in my heart, I know the 20.1 replacement would be something special. And I dare say if the upgrade of second system itch does cometh, it has to be this pair of speakers. I am waiting for the dealer to bring this in. While I may not have the space to house them today, if they do perform the way I imagine them to be (way better that the already very good 3.7), I will consider them and move the Meridian to become my bedroom system if I get things my way.

Once I got over this and started from a clean slate using the old "golden ratio" as a starting point, things fell into place nicely. Any setup these days would surely be far easier. ....I'm slowly talking myself into looking into 20.7s, I'm clearly out of my mind. |

Apparently biamping wont be an option on the 20.7 so finding the right amps (monoblocks maybe) to drive them (Burmester, Pass, Bryston et al) will make putting a system based around these new beauties an exciting option. However a pair of Maggies is going to be a fair bit harder to hide from your good wife than the Leben... but definitely extra points for trying Graham Last edited by audiot servant; 12-19-2011 at 07:11 PM. |

My Maggie dealer knew nothing of 20.7s. He is contacting them to get release/availability info.
