Magnepan LRS Support Group?!
I ordered a pair of LRS a couple weeks ago. Backorder time is 6 months! I don't know if anybody else is feeling the uncomfortable longing after ordering theirs? How are you passing the time? I'm kidding (I guess), but I've never had to wait 6 months for a new toy! Let me know if you're also re-reading the reviews that made you take the plunge and planning your listening space alterations. Maybe some of you who have gotten a pair recently can keep us sane by sharing your experience with what we are waiting patiently for. Thanks!
@b_limo +1 1.7i's are exceptionally good... and a steal at the asking price, undoubtedly the sweet spot in the line, what a wonderful speaker, highly revealing and utterly pleasureable at the same time better stands really help (i use magna's, myes good too) of course, as with all true dipoles, setup must be done right but the results are absolutely worth it...

@glennewdick thanks for that info. They raised the price $100 from what they were (my order was $750), so I guess they're getting something extra. I also heard that the factory is experiencing the same challenge as a lot of places hiring staff to meet the demand. Did you order them with a year wait? I feel for you!

@b_limo thanks for the recommendation and for your comment about liking the LRS. I think the size and price of the LRS is best for my current purposes, but we'll see if I trade up down the road. |
I have a pair. I bought just to see what all the hype is about. I am totally amazed by these speakers. They don't do it all for me but wow what they do well is incredible. I keep a solid state amp in my rack (Pass 30.8) and pull out the LRS since they are so easy to move and play them for a few days when I want a different flavor. These are such a bargain for the sound you get.
