Magnepan center channel and rears?


I have a pair of the magnepan 1.6's and am interested in their center channel and rear speakers for surround. Has anyone had a chance to hear the cc3 center channel and the surround speakers that cost about $750 per pair? I was wondering how they stack up against the center channel and rears that you can buy direct from Magnepan. I have a small room, 11 x 14.

Yes, I have the room 11 x 19, and use the 1.6, CC3 for front. I have heard the MC1 and plan on buying them for the rears. Worth every penny.

Make the CC3 a higher priority than the rears though if budget is an issue. Remember, rear surround sound is non- HiFi information. The ones they sell direct are not dipoles, 2 way design. I thought about using MMG's for the rear, but the MC1 mounts so nicely to the wall.

Happy Maggie Listening! I love mine!!! Can't wait to get 3.6 someday. But I just bought a new preamp and vacumn tube cd player, so it will be a while.
