Does anyone know what size the shipping box for Magnepan 3.7i 's are. Having trouble getting the exact dimensions so I'll know what type of vehicle to move a pair in. Will. Honda CR-V do the job?
Thanks
John

Don't be modest, you knew that off the top of your head. :-)

I'm going to put money down soon on a pair of Magnepan 20.7
I want to know the current wait times, from order to delivery, for 20.7?

Actually more to know if I have to delay ordering, rather than order early.
Since if the current delivery is in less than a month, I would need to wait to order.
Were if they take six weeks, or eight, no problem I am in no rush. But I could order sooner.

From Wendell, no special delays.

From me, good choice!

So with no answer, that means no one is going to say what the current wait time is? Or can I call Magnepan the day I plan to order, and find out what the current length ot time from order to shipping?.
 
I am not asking for any 'delay'. I am asking what is the current wait time.

My 3.7s took 14, maybe 20 days from order to my living room. 
Place the order with your dealer and they'll be there before you know it.
Post a review, please.

. I bought a pair of Mini Maggie two years back in Malaysia and I recently moved to India.  When I thought I attained Audio Nirvana, a capacitor in one speaker blew, tearing the grill! I could see only the name Richey A14C on the blown piece. I request you to let me know the specs of this capacitor and also where I could get it.

Also, please let me know if anybody has he schematic for the crossover. Thanks very much,

ganeshvm,
The suggestion is to contact Magnepan directly (if you haven't already done so).

A_shah,
I can answer that one. 
I think half your speaker won't work, people who replace the jumpers normally use a section the speaker wire that they're running.
I've tried it and couldn't tell the difference but maybe my ears aren't that discerning.

From Wendell AKA Road Dog:

I completed the Western half of North America and working my way east. We are urging customers to RSVP their dealers to be notified when we make a schedule to come to their area.​

I also have been intrigued by the tri-center approach and spoke with Wendell on how to set it up. He emphasized that it is critical to use a Bryston processor to make the "magic" happen, so I bought one (a 1.7 upgraded to 2.0) to play with. ...

Did Wendell give you any specific PLII settings to make the tri-channel magic happen ???

E.G.
  • Center Width Control = ???
  • Dimension Control = ???
  • Panorama Mode = ???

TIA

Wendell says to give him a call on Tuesday, 9/4/18.
It sounds like the answer will be too detailed to boil down to a few sentences.

My last post in this thread over a year ago. I have owned my Magnepan 20.7 almost a year! Anniversary on March 23.


I am not sure how much ddark65 Martin Logans would be worth trading them in for 20.7 or 30.7 Magnepan.. Depends on the dealer... :thumb:
