In Reply to: RE: Difference Between Magnepan Ribbon Tweeters: Mg 20.7 vs 3.6 posted by nicoff on April 11, 2015 at 12:33:01
It's a superb tweeter. Your observation makes plenty of sense, especially for a manufacturer that values cost containment, like Magnepan.
I disconnected my 3.7s this week - I'll probably have to put them away for a while (not permanently - due to a temporary room reconfiguration). I tried my daughter's Def Tech Mythos ST speakers. They will fit better and they sound quite good, but the Maggie ribbon would be sorely missed. It really is a superb tweeter.

Wazoo, what are you doing to the roof?
The room reconfiguration is a bit of a long story, but the mancave will also serve as my sleeping quarters for a year, or two. At any rate, I doubt the 3.7s will be workable in the new arrangement. For the time being, I'll live with conventional speakers. Well, the MMGs will remain in use in the house.
Hey, it'll give me an opportunity to dig into the 3.7s. I might even build them a set of hardwood frames.

Ah, well, place them side by side--double bed you can sleep on! :)
"Conventional" speakers sounds so, um, conventional!
