I have never seen a pair of Magnavox like these before. I can't believe they will have much low end with that set up and I'm pretty sure they won't sound "simular" to Magnepans. They are also aparently very heavy at a whopping 17lbs. each.:confused:

    Kinda neat, I wouldn't pay $149 for them, but they might sound pretty cool on single ended tube flea amp.

    I like the description..........like Magnepan, but with real speakers.:D Must be because they are MagnaVOX.

    I'm thinking they may sound like a vintage Magnavox TV set, circa 1961.

    LOL. Well in THAT case they are a must have. :) We all know and love that wonderful sound like a guy speaking with a sock in his mouth from the end of the hallway.

    Those are so Kool and Have "Real Speaker Parts" , I knew Maggies were a ripoff. They're kinda like a Flat Panel Bose, paper cones and all, gotta love that. Those Woofers look like they Kick A too. :cool:

    Paper cones sound great.
