How many versions of Magnepan SMG exist?


My son bought a used pair of SMGs that are much wider than company specs indicate. Much of the width is in solid wooden "wings" on either side of the active surface.

To improve his WAF, he would like to remove most of the extra width (so they are less noticeable when in use, and can be easily "hidden" when not), but he's concerned about possible degradation
of performance.

Any info regarding this, or results from similar experimentation, please??

You can add the SMG-c to the list as well. The original SMG version was a bit larger and heavier looking than its successors. I believe that the "a,b and c" versions were quite similar in size all being not as wide as the SMG but I could be wrong. If size is really an issue possibly a solution is a new or used pair of MMG's as I think their width may be as much as 4 inches less than the SMG on hand at present. Get out the tape measure and check Magnepan's website for the MMG measurements - maybe it will work.
