Magnepan announced it today on their Facebook group. According to Eric Noorgarden, "There will be a new planar speaker in town, very soon. It's called the Magnepan 30.7 and it will be available in early 2018. For now, here's a photo. An official description along with accompanying reviews will take place later this month and throughout the remainder of 2017. Think of the 30.7 as a mix of the 20.7 and the Tympani series. A bit like a Tympani "unhinged." The massive bass panel is the same size as the entire 20.7 panel. The tweeter and midrange are on the smaller panel. More details, including pricing and specifications are forthcoming. I have heard the 30.7 and am very excited! I hope you will be, too!!

[Voncarlos]

Just buy them and send them to me. I’ll store them until your ready - no charge

Heh, noticed that too. This pair is the prototype, so that may not be what they'll ship with.

Really. There's going to be an uptick in the real estate market!

You'll have to wait for the desktop version.

Anybody know what the dimensions of that room are?

I'm guessing 22' wide with that inviting looking Spanish Inquisition chair 20' back, 8' ceiling.

[josh358]

Dunno, and it's always hard to tell from a photo. All I know is that it was taken at a press preview, which explains the hotel-issue chair!

[SteveFord]

Hope they didn't steal the towels.
Those monster panels give me an idea. 
Time to bug Wendell for a bit.

It's always time to bug Wendell.

I am feeling certain I can fit those in my 11' 6" wide living room...

And I almost bought a pair of 20.7..
I can wait and see what these babies cost.
My guess is $22,000.
Maybe $23,000.

Should be doable, HP had the IRS/T-1D in his room:

[josh358]

Man, he was listening right up against the rear wall, too, like me! Now I don't feel so bad about having to do that.

Definite squeeze, but I have a pair of Tympani IVA's in a room that's 14' 6" wide, more like 13' 6" because they have to clear the fireplace, so I'm guessing you could make it work. The separate mid-tweet panel is the key, since they can go in front of the woofers. But don't be surprised if you have to EQ the midbass down some!

[Elizabeth]

The other upside is folks who bought 20.7 may upgrade..
So some USED 20.7 should be coming on the market..
SWEET....

Now all we need is a mini version using the .7 as template!!
