Magnepans and Rock

That's the main genre that I listen to on my MG3.6s. I was also a Magnepan dealer for many years and sold many, many pairs of speakers to rockers. Not hard rock or speed metal or acid type listeners, but regular rock-n-rollers.

They will not play extremely loud without panel slap, but at normal levels, they rock with the best of them.

You could always add a sub and crossover to handle the low end.

They are not that bad with rock but lack the punch in the chest whack of a drum that big box speakers do well. I listen mostly to rock and passed several times on magnepans but they have their good points. You will just have to have a listen.

One of my favorites speaker brands, but not my first choice with rock.

Thanks guys, figured they were not the best for my brand of music but have always been fascinated by what I have read and the loyalty of owners. I do have a dealer relatively close by so I will have to give a listen.

Always have had box speakers - Thiels and Egglestons - probably the polar opposite of Maggies.
