For sale, a pair of Magnepan MMG's. Conservatively, they're a 8.5/10. There's one small scratch on one of their frames, otherwise I can't find anything wrong with them. I have the original packaging and I believe I also have the original manual/documentation.

Here's the manufacturer's information on them: http://magnepan.com/model_MMG

Here's the only snag, local pickup on Long Island ONLY. Absolutely NO shipping.

Price: $375 OBO

Feel free to PM or email me if you have any questions.

    I should have added, anyone inquiring about shipping will get a beat down at Polk Fest. :D

    Man am I glad I live really just out of driving range. Those are nice little things for that money. Just out of driving range and no use whatsoever for them. To the untrained that might look like a deal-breaker.

    Chuck,
    At this time, I'm unsure how I will be traveling to Polkfest. So I wouldn't be able to commit to bringing them with me, sorry.

    I just picked up a pair of these recently, they are amazing. It's such a good scam by magnepan. They give you this affordable little bombshell . . . now all I can think about is what a 1.6QR sounds like or even some of its bigger brothers.

    I don't think they give way much to the bigger brothers if used in a smaller room. That is how I became familar with them. Four of them in a very small room. So small the surrounds were almost within arm's reach. Placement was as bad as can be for the fronts too, and it STLL sounded great. Sadly, that guy no longer lives three doors down.

    Little magic speakers is what they are.

    Communication has dropped off, so I assume they're still available.

    Anyone local want to give these a try?

    $6 to and from NY to FL. Consider for the extra baggage fee.

    Anyone along the 95 corridor (NY Metro to Washinton, DC) that is interested in these, I will deliver them to you as long as you are not too far from 95. I live right down the road from Mike and I have 3 weeks left of working in MD. After that time, the offer no longer stands.
