gawbbless,

You're fortunate to own the Impulse H1. It's rare and desirable, but I'm sure that you know that. An interesting collection you have.

The  Magnepan MG-2 was  my first high-end speaker purchased circa 1978. Followed by:
Magnepan MG-3A
Magnepan MG-3.3
Magnepan MG-3.5
Magnepan MG-20.1 ( My current speaker, purchased around 2012)

I love the open non-boxy sound of the maggies. With the appropriate
amplification and cables they can be very musical sounding.
