Yes people need to keep up with the times. It was the notion that Magnepan's pricing was 'outrageous' that got me laughing. It is not.
I stumbled into my local hi-fi emporium around 1980 and discovered the Magnepan. I had never heard or seen anything like them before. After a few more visits I bought my first Magnepan the recently released SMG. As I recall they were $395/pair.
In 2023 dollars that makes them about $1,300. The LRS at $995? A bargain.
I kept the SMG for about a week and decided I wanted a pair of MGIIB instead. They retailed for $995 or about $3.3K in today's dollar.
Beyond exceptional performance Magnepan has always represented exceptional value. Even with ever increasing material, transportation and labor costs Magnepan continues to maintain an excellent price to performance ratio.
