I'd be reluctant to buy used Magnepans unless I knew the provenance very well, they are much more sensitive to both physical and electronic abuse than more conventional designs.


I've got some MG-1's (from late 70's) that were in my mother-in-laws closet.. I had to rewire the trebel panel, but aside from that they're excelent speakers....

Magnepan will refurbish almost any speaker (within 15 or so years of manufacture) so if you can get a good deal on some older ones even or some with damage to the mylar this could be a good option.... You could probably even just have them shipped to Magnepan from whoever you buy them....
