Roger,
I should have clarified that what was bought from Magnepan in TOTAL. It does not reflect the exact amount in terms of runs. If you have a closer look at the photo I provided it should be self evident that there are NO double runs and why that is the case.
Each bass panel measures 4.1 ohms. Are you doubting this?

"What kind of Magnepan is that picture showing? It is not an I-D.."
Roger the photo shows the right channel to REFRAMED Tympani 1Ds. The outside panel clearly shows the existing tweeter and to the right of that is the true ribbon which has been placed there by myself. Peter Keenan who made the wooden frames also made a pair for David who is a friend of Andyr's and I can assure you that Andy will testify that this photo reflects the same outcome, that is Tympani 1Ds which have had their drivers removed from the existing frame and then placed on Tasmanian Oak wooden frames.

In theory the change of the wiring would cause:
increased efficiency
lowered cut off frequency, operating at a lower spectrum
the need for a separate midrange driver increases
less midrange transparency
Increased efficiency yes. I am getting SIGNIFICANT bass response compared to standard wiring. That was self evident to myself, the repairer and many other others who have listened.
I disagree with less midrange transparency and very much so at that.
Cheers Ozzie
