RE: A message from Wendell at Magnepan

Since they never described the round-wire planar as being "ribbon" anything (as it isn't), the reasonable conclusion is that "foil ribbon conductor on a substrate" is a quasi-ribbon and "foil ribbon conductor on nothing" is a ribbon, and a "wire on a substrate" is a wire on a substrate.

By this measure, the old Apogees were quasi-ribbon bass & true ribbon treble.

In practical terms I think they changed some production machines/procedures to make full-panel foil, and that's what they'll be using for everything instead of round wire.
