The Magnepan MG-1.5, MG-1.6, MMG-W, and MGMC-3 have graced my system for a significant period in the past. The dipole radiation pattern of the Magnepans ameliorates room interactions somewhat similarly to the constant directivity designs offered by Pi Speakers and they generate a spacious soundstage with life-like dimensions. The downsides of planar magnetic speakers include low sensitivity, limited output capability and somewhat "loose" (or attenuated in the case of the MMG-W and MCMC-3) bass. The 3Pi easily outperforms any of Magnepans that I've used and, if the room has appropriate corners, the 6Pi is better still. Search for my 6Pi and 3Pi reviews found here for more specifics regarding the construction and performance of these exceptional loudspeakers.
