The answer is the meaning of life. Which is to say no one knows for sure. This is true of the 3.7/3.7i. All Magnepan will say is that the i models sound better. As best I can tell the crossovers and drivers are the same so I suspect it has something to do with the tensioning of the mylar or some other subtle physical alteration in the construction.
I married the perfect woman. The downside is everything that goes wrong is my fault.
Follow Ups:
There is at least some physical alteration; the fasteners along the edges/stiles are larger on the 3.7i vs. the 3.7 or previous.
...and there is tape behind the midrange driver on the "i"
