-at current market value. I'm sure they'll absolutely love you for it.
Whenever I buy a car, groceries, music, stereo equipment, etc., .. the LAST thing on my mind is if it will benefit the manufacturer (unless it's a charitable organization ie Girl scouts, Goodwill, etc.,).
However I will say my first and second Maggies (MG1.6, MMG) were bought brand new but they were purchased from a dealer who already had them in stock. So in that sense Magnepan had benefitted loooooong before I even walked in the door.
My current Maggies (MG20s) were bought used for $2700. Current MG20.7s cost over $14K. Now I like Magnepan as an American corporation, but it took me 3 years of saving to get the MG20s. At that rate it would took at 'least' 6 years of saving to get a new set.
