I now agree. the person hijacked the Magnepan 30.7 thread to prop up his favorite speaker. So I 'retaliated' and dissed his fav. on a thread for Magnepan. That my insult might 'harm' the small speaker maker was not in my thoughts at the time, but later, I realized it was not right. Particularly since the speaker manufacturer told the guy who posted about the other speakers in the Magnepan thread to' Knock it off:. So I apologize for dumping on the speaker. If you want me to wear a hair shirt, no. All in all it was what it was. But I am certain some folks who just love to rub it in, will continue to attempt to punish me at every available opportunity.Trying to knock people 'off their high horse' is a popular pastime.

Curious,  has anyone actually bought and received a pair of 30.7’s yet?  Do you know anyone that has?

Heard the 30.7 at HIFI Centre in Vancouver BC.Have posted on the WB Forum as on the Magnepan thread.They are exceptional speakers.A lot of people post opinions without having heard them ?
These have me thinking of making a change to my system.

Stickman, I don't know anyone who has a pair or how many they've shipped, but I know they're shipping now. Wendell asked me to pass along a message and some pictures on the Planar Asylum. He writes,

"Another 30.7 was shipped today, and three more pairs are being packed to ship out soon. We have been super-cautious and would not allow the pressure to hurry us. A mistake on a flagship is remembered long after delays in delivery.

"We were gone virtually all of July and August, so we are ahead of schedule on the North American tour. Forty-two demonstrations so far with 42 different sounds. Great sound was only achieved about 20% of the time. But, the attendees had a lot of fun. Most people recognized the shortcomings of their dealer's showroom.

"A special thanks to Wazoo for giving accurate context in Macon, Georgia. It is a HUGE space with poor acoustics. Leland Lee (the owner) regrets that he no longer has the old store. To survive, many dealers have had to move to less than ideal facilities. I saw it repeatedly--the world's best speakers can't fix so-so sound rooms. And diffusers are one of the best investments in audio gear.

"Many hundreds of attendees have heard the 30.7s. Only a tiny handful care to participate in chat rooms. I wish more attendees would speak up so it was more representative."

I'm sure he'll be delighted by rugyboogie's post. Can't wait to hear them myself, though even if I had $30,000 in my piggy bank, they wouldn't work in my pathetically small listening room because I have to accommodate a projector...
