Magnepan LRS Support Group?!

My dealer told me a year wait a few weeks ago. He said they don't make any money off them so they are not prioritized in production. Sadly i wish they would raise the price a little so its a benefit for them to sell and make them in a timely manner. 

@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.  

Unlike amplifiers speakers cannot hide their faults from measurements.

You can't measure a dipole loudspeaker in the near field and get worthwhile results. You also can't listen to a Magnepan placed one foot from the front wall and surrounded by other gear. Magnepans lead the industry in each of their respective price ranges including the very top end of audio loudspeakers. Measurements are fine when they are measuring things that can be accurately measured, dipoles are not one of those things. Get out and go listen to a 3.7 or a 20 and you'll see what we are talking about.
