I remember my first encounter with a Magneplanar. Was around 1982, I think, and I was at as all boutique for my first real turntable (an LP-12) and I heard what I swear sounded like live music coming from another room. When I asked to go in to that listening room I was greeted by the sound of the MOFI pressing of John Klemmer "Touch", played back through the unusual flat panel speakers. I stayed and listened for a couple of cuts and couldn't believe the transparency and presence heard through that set up (ARC electronics). From that moment on, the Maggie's were on my wish list. Though my first speaker purchase after that was the ProAc Studio 1 monitors, I eventually got my wish around 2005 when I purchased my 1.6qr system. Because I had to downsize in 2011 to MMG, I eventually plan to go up to the 1.7i or higher as space allows.
