Preview: New Magnepan LRS Plus & Dipole Dynamic Woofer - Assault On The State of The Art for Less?

[@tod4110]

I own 1.7i, powered by a '94 Bryston 3B NRB/ BP20. I heard the LRS+ with sub. And New 2.7i at Axpona Show. Each sounded great. LRS+ room out played many speakers 6x Thier price.

Nice interview! Thank you for the video...😉

[@TheTASmagazine]

Thanks for watching!

[@54tristin]

The SVS 3000 micro works very well with Lars and 0.7

[@digggerrjones7345]

My goodness, this Martens guy is just horrible at interviewing! I feel sorry for Wendell having to sit through this.

[@Peter-ii4xq]

The 3-series gives enough bass for me. But they are to big and need an expensive amp. The little speakers need a sub-woofer, but they don't work very good together. So I am curious about the magnepan sub-woofer. Specially the price.

[@andershammer9307]

I once sat next to Wendel Diller as we listened to the Magnepan 1.4 speaker. He asked me what I thought and I told him what I heard wrong with the speaker and that really pissed him off. But he did ask me for my opinion. I think I may have killed the 1.4 because of that. I tend to prefer electrostatic speakers.

[@andershammer9307]

I was working for a store called Audio Gallery back then and we were trying out the Magnepans to see if we wanted to sell them. we decided not to.

[@carlosoliveira-rc2xt]

You think too much of yourself if you think you can influence whether or not a model gets introduced. Now, I'm not a huge fan of panel speakers but I did like the old ML CLS for small scale music.

[@andershammer9307]

@@carlosoliveira-rc2xt The audio world was a pretty small world and i got to be well known back then.

[@carlosoliveira-rc2xt]

@@andershammer9307 Well if you were somebody, you should know Wendell is spelled this way. Lol Just teasing, Cheers!

[@darrenjohnson1299]

Very smart.. the lrs is a great entry product, but most subs aren't appropriate for it. Now if the lrs owners aren't trading up, get a good sub for them instead.

[@pukindog4413]

Magnepan needs to send their speakers to be made in China! They will be 200 dollars and sound like 10k. All the reviewer's say the same about the new LRS PLUS THE SAID ABOUT THE MMG! THEY WILL SOUND GOOD IF YOU SPEND MANY THOUSANDS ON ELECTRONICS AND SUB. WOFFER!

[@carlosoliveira-rc2xt]

I wish they would have worked on the picture quality here.

[@geraldkuschel1896]

Will a hafler dh200 run the lrs+?

[@nicomodesto5282]

Not an Expert here of the brand but I would like to try 1.7 with two subs and the right amplification/dac. Fpga and a class a/b very refined sound. Also fuse and cable must be at the top with the right tips from the dealer/manufacture, Thanks .

[@dougg1075]

He was blowing the endorsement haha! I really want to try these

[@jonasDoguedeBordeaux]

Tell us the truth you upgraded the cross over and made them a little bigger by 2 inches ? I'm gonna buy the lsr and modify them

[@jlo8775]

Painful to watch 🤦‍♂️

[@stuartwarneck6855]

When is Wendell going to retire? Most incoherent interview.

[@jasonmelo9379]

This is so hilarious and so accurate

[@54tristin]

Take it easy, there is no reason to be insulting. I don’t think I ever heard a good interview. He has all his marbles. Be nice! It’s just audio!

[@paddle_shift]

Musicians (for example) who love their stereo but who are scraping by financially who could also tell the difference between LRS & LRS+ are and should be one of the target buyers of Magnepan. Stop referring to LRS+ buyers as "novice" or "entry level".

[@Rodglaze]

Used to be in the biz, early Maggie’s Wendell and Jim always came by our west coast dealership. Fast forward 50 years I now know nothing, missed 50 years of change,had to work.

[@robg8963]

After this interview, I feel like I know less than when I started about the LRS+ and it's merits. Their website isn't helpful either. Magnepan company can't get out of its own way.

[@tubeofmystery]

Were you hoping for a set of blueprints?

[@carlosoliveira-rc2xt]

The speakers are good value but the stands seem overpriced.

[@robertdiamond9413]

I have listened to him a few times now. Needs to fire himself. Get a salesman/woman who can convey only what needs to be said. That being said, I will probably buy some speakers, Lol.

[@Peter-ii4xq]

I thought the subwoofer was gonna be heard!? There was only talking.

[@standelles5024]

Listening to Diller speak is painful. Good news that he is no longer in marketing. I own 3.7i, so I'm not a Magnepan basher. But please, Magnepan, hire a professional publicist to promote the line.

[@dizzywow]

Good Lord, these guys are old.

[@rickclink9196]

Yes older tends to be more knowledgeable. So I guess your ,,,,,,

[@pukindog4413]

I desperately wanted my mmg to sound good. But, my Dayton audio- 35 dollar a pair speakers with 4 inch midbass and ribbon tweeter sounds so much better. Don't understand what magnepan is thinking. 🙏

[@pukindog4413]

They look cool but everything else sounds a million times better at a million times less expensive

[@John-Edward]

What are you talking about? LOL 😂

[@carlosoliveira-rc2xt]

So they owe you money when you purchase a pair? The LRS + is about $1,000 so what sounds better at less than a penny?
