Magnapan SMGa Speakers

Finish: Oak
Design: Electrostatic (thin panel)

I have had these speakers for just over two years now. These Magnapans are some of the most admired speakers by audiophiles the world over. Their elegant design coupled with its neutral, wide and impeccable imaged sound really make it a phenomenal listening experience for those who appreciate acoustically sound music. My dad has had his upstairs for

about 25 years, and they still sound beautiful. They can be demoed for those interested.

"The "Maggie" SMGa is one of the finest speakers, bar none, produced in the last 20 years." About.com
"the SMGa is distinguished by a virtually unmatched lucidity of sound" New York Times

If interested I would highly recommend reading this article on these "maggies" raving about the Maggies.

The only reason why I am selling them is because my cousin ended up giving me his maggies when he upgraded to a newer model.

I had decided to rewrap them about a year ago by using black speaker cloth to replace the original tweed. It did not come out as well as I would have liked and I would recommend replacement Socks which can be purchased for under $50 from Magnapan, they will give them a very fresh look and the replacement is very easy (takes under half an hour for both).

I am asking only $125, I paid $350 when I bought them earlier.
