The advantage of the 3.6 is it can be bi-amped.. They both need the same amount of power which is really a lot.1.7 or the 3.7 draws on one amp or mono block amps. You can bi-amp possibly with modifications and crossovers. You misunderstood what I said. The .7 series is a great achievement and it saves you a fortune in electronics... Unless you are into the neurotic end hobby and not the music you are asking for trouble going back 15 years in time to a speaker that is not superior to the .7 series. Magnepan knows what they are doing.

One thing that will help as far as power goes is that the room is not too big. nt. - MWE 10:09:22 02/19/21 (0)

Certainly a concern, but mine are from 2004 and no issues so far. nt. - MWE 07:27:46 02/19/21 (0)
