Not lower but the bass is not as controlled and articulate which could explain why you find it warmer. I had 3.6īs prior to my current 3.7īs, have not Heard the "i".
Follow Ups:
When I say warm I really mean "life Like" and "alive". A warm body Vs dead body.I feel the 3.7i is "colder" than real, acoustic, live music.
Did you change amps in your 3.6 Vs 3.7 comparison?
Do you micro position your Magnepans over a long time? Do you rearrange the furniture and listening spot? What is behind your speakers, glass windows? What is the size and shape of your room? Can you hear the system sound change after an hour or two? All that makes a BIG difference.
Is warm to "you", carmel colored, velvet fog, old style tube sound, overlaying all recordings?
That is NOT my definition.
Some people listen to crap pop music. How can they possibly optimize a system?
Some on this site feel Magnepan can do no wrong. They pray on a rug aimed at White Bear lake three times a day, and want to chop off your head if you criticize their "religion'!
I am not one of those.

Hasse,
You have not tried to have a peak at the crossover or what the bass/midrange driver look like? I was surprised by the fact that the foil conductor of the 3.7 was that thick, double the foil in the midrange of the 20-series. That would also mean the layout of the foil must be different to the earlier speakers in the 3-series.
