Magnapan Hardwood frame upgrade begins - MGIIIa

At least with tweaking the crossover you can spend time turning knobs instead of money for parts. Save up that money for the next upgrade. And I know what that is already.

Any high current amp should not have a problem driving a 2Ω load to less than 25% the output of the midrange or woofer amp.
 
This is the final post! - Wow! these things are the real deal, and I must confess, I experienced the first mylar slap since I have owned these speakers! Boost to the bass panel created it. These are scary good, and the $$ and time invested are worth it. Anyone who needs info please PM me, if I don't return ASAP I'm probably immersed in music.:music::music::music:

Jim

Check out some of the posts Jim has started. He has really stretched what these speakers can do with quad-amping, sub, woofer, mid and tweet each have their own amp, last two are tube units. Do a bit of looking around and I'm sure Jim will drop in and tell you more.
 
What a trip down memory lane, and yes the speakers are still in play and performing flawlessly 14 yrs later!

Jim
 
Steve is building wooden supports for the tweeter and the ribbon midrange drivers for his Tympani IVa speakers he bought partially based on hearing your system. Magneplanars are something special.
