Magnepan announces the 20.7

Your Yukon must be alot smaller then it looks from the outside. I had no trouble putting the 3.7's in the back of my wifes' 4Runner. As for the stands, your the first person I've ever read on any forum that didn't admit that they did make an obvious improvement. There has to be a first for everything, I guess. And to the 3.7's not being very much better then the 3.6, somebody must think so becuase Magnepan can't keep up with the demand for the new 7 series. They even tell you on their website that business is very good. They can wait.

All of this is exactly why I would never buy speakers without hearing them. Clearly, people are coming to very different conclusions on the 3.7's. I've already articulated my thoughts on the 3.7's vs 3.6's etc, so I won't repeat what I've already written. As for the Mye Stands, I had a pair for my 1.6's and I have a pair for my 3.7's going through customs as I write this. The ability to tilt the speakers to achieve a perpendicular between the top to bottom middle of the tweeter with ear level makes an enormous improvement in my opinion. Others may hear things differently, and I'm not going to suggest they should hear what I hear or their conclusions are invalid. Those who are considering the 3.7's should let their ears be their guide. Too bad that is not possible with the stands. As Mrschret points out, those who prefer the Magnepan stock feet are fairly rare, but again, people hear what they hear.

Oh Yes, my Yukon is a lot smaller than it looks. Why do I have to keep explaining everything to you? First, I had to explain about why I only took six songs to the dealer and now I have to explain the length of my cargo area in my Yukon. Didn't you see where I put in LOL ? I was half joking with myself as the box slid in to the cargo area of my Yukon. I was talking about just fitting the 3.6's in the back because the length of the Magnepan box is 74" and the length of my cargo area is not much longer so I was slightly sweating bullets as the box was being pushed in by me and the sales person hoping the tailgate would close. I was only having fun with the story, but you said you put yours in your car and now your saying they went in a 4Runner. OK, car, 4Runner, whatever, but any car would be tough. OK, lets laugh about it, right? LOL. Everybody wants to get their Maggies home by themselves but not everybody has a Yukon or a 4Runner.
The Stands, Oh everybody loves those myestands. They are so popular that almost everybody who buys a floor standing maggies calls this company and orders a myestand. As of this date (Wednesday 1-25-12) there are currently 10 floor standing maggies for sale here on audiogon, most with pictures and all the listings show the speakers with the stock feet, not one maggie is standing on a myestand.
When we got ours we tried and we tried. We even invited friends over to help. Our maggies with their stock stands and then on the myestands, back and forth, and back and forth. On and off, off and on. Four times with and four times without. A total of nine people heard no discernible difference to justify to keep the myestnnds for their high price, so back they went. I thanked my two friends and four of my son's friends for all their help and time. I'm not busting anyone's chops here. If you like your myestands and you think it's worth blowing that kind of money on them, then all the power to you. For crying out loud, even our dealer at the time said it was not necessary and the the maggies sound fine as they are. We agree, and saved some money.
After all, right now, there are ten sellers listing theirs with the stock stands. I can't wait to see the response to this letter as I know you won't rest until you have the last word. And yes, one is going to hear what one hears, but in this case, OH, I forgot to say in this very very rare case nine people, only nine, not 3, not 5, not 7, but 9 people for a total of two weeks heard no big difference. Please remember, this is just my opinion. I'm not saying that your myestand made no difference in your system, I'm just saying for my system the myestand was useless.
Come on, come on, hurry up and write me a nasty letter in response to mine. I mean, I know you have to have the last word and you have to write to tell me how wrong I am. maybe you could even criticize my friends? While your at it, why not mock my yukon about how big it is or how small it is. Let's get this battle going. This is going to be great LOL LOL.

Exron,
I'm guessing Mrschret will be able to find at least 11 people who swear by the Mye Stands. What is the point? I have no problem with you not liking them. I have no problem with someone insisting they are the greatest things ever. There is a reason that we have an abundance of high end manufacturers of equipment making everything from flea watt SET's to kilowatt SS monsters. It is because we value different things. Its not because I'm right and you are wrong. What can be very right for me can be very wrong for you. It happens all the time. Some people like BMW's, some people like Audi's. So what? Chill everybody, this is supposed to be fun. I don't need anyone else validating my decisions about buying equipment. My own ears tell me yes or no, but they can't tell you what you are going to like or dislike.

I agree with you Brownsfan, you wrote a very good paragraph.
