Paul, congratulations from me too. You should have some fun trying them out with your two systems. There is a lot of good information here by others on step up and break in. I started with the 1.7's and was very happy with. Listening to Graham, Ray and others talk about their 3.7's drove me crazy. I moved up to 3.7's and they moved up to 20.7's. Thankfully those are out of my reach and my room is to small. I sure love my Maggie's

I'm so sorry to tell you that I just sold my 1.7.......
I tried to listen to them over and over again...played 24/7 ....changed the jumpers to silver wire.... toe in & out...add a sub....playing around on small and large room... Nothing worked on my taste... Don't get me wrong ...it's great products and its one of best speakers under $ 3G...but that's where it end.... Just decide to stick with Elipsa and Harbeth Thank you guys for greeting .... maybe I will try the 3.7 some time. |

Hey Paul,
Sorry they didn't work for you. It takes a while to get the brightness to go away. You already have some very excellent speakers. I was wondering how it was going to shake out for you. The 1.7’s definitely needed help in the bass end of the scale. Nothing JL Subs can't handle but there goes more $$'s. ~Mike Last edited by mgard; 11-10-2012 at 09:43 PM. |

Paul +1 sorry to hear the 1.7s didn't work out for you. Being at one with your speakers is the critical foundation to building the right system for you.
But then again it's not like you're suffering toooo badly going ahead enjoying music with the Elipsas and Harbeth and as in everything, theres little point flogging the ex-horse... enjoy wherever your ears take you. Graham Sent from my iPhone using A.Aficionado |

It seems that Maggies devide audiophiles. Some love them, and the rest don't understant what is so great about them. I fell in love with them over 20 years ago. I had a "sidetrack" period with electrostats but recently returned back to Magnepan. I love them (and the way they "radiate" music).

I have just the opposite problem - I'm afraid to try anything else but Maggie's now for fear my expectations won't be realized! LOL
