RE: Magnepan MG-1.7: casual impressions

"Looks can be deceiving. The room may have been over damped which could suck the life out of a pair of maggies. It may have been a good space for dynamic box speakers, but perhaps not ideal for dipoles. Obviously I'm just guessing since I haven't seen the room myself."

Hmm, now that you've brought this up, you may be on to something. There was indeed certain feeling of deafness in the room, or as you say, the room may have been over dampened. Like, heavily carpeted and draped.

Is it possible that such environment can issue a heel command to the Maggies? Would the Maggies obey, roll over, and play dead? I find those speakers to be extremely disobedient. Maggies are famous for flaunting their personality shamelessly, in all kinds of environments.
