Offered is „MG 20.7“ by Magnepan / Magneplanar as exhibit from the category „Standing Speaker“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8700398918 ends on 20.10.2026 at 06:03 o'clock.
The Magnepan MG 20.7 is a reference-class three-way planar magnetic speaker renowned for its true ribbon tweeter and quasi-ribbon midrange, delivering exceptional imaging and clarity. At €17,000, the asking price is a strong bargain, sitting well below the typical used market range of €19,000–€24,000 (derived from demo prices like $22,995, approximately €21,500, and new pricing near €32,000). This represents a genuine opportunity for a fellow enthusiast to secure a high-end speaker at a fraction of its replacement cost.
This model is well-regarded for its ability to play at high volumes without breakup, offering a rare blend of speed, tonal accuracy, and dynamic power. With pristine condition and no noted failure points, the listing is a buying opportunity rather than a caution. The timing is ideal for those seeking reference-level sound without the premium new price, making it a standout value in the current market.

Founded in 1969 in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, by engineer Jim Winey, Magnepan emerged from his dissatisfaction with electrostatic speakers during his time at 3M. Seeking a superior alternative, Winey invented the Magneplanar—a thin-film magnetic driver that rivaled electrostats without their limitations. Bootstrapped with funds from friends and family, the family-owned company has remained American-made, now led by Winey's son Mark from a 50,000-square-foot facility, upholding over five decades of planar innovation.
Magnepan specializes exclusively in planar magnetic loudspeakers, from compact Mini Maggies to towering flagships like the 3.7i. These full-range or hybrid panels eschew traditional cones for quasi-ribbon and true-ribbon drivers, delivering expansive soundstages and lifelike transients. The lineup avoids amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables, focusing solely on speakers that demand high-current amplification to thrive.
Positioned as a high-end niche leader, Magnepan commands reverence among audiophiles for neutral voicing, room-filling dispersion, and value that outpaces competitors dollar-for-dollar. Handcrafted in the USA with domestic parts—"Made in America. Sold in China"—its panels offer unmatched transparency at premium prices, cementing a legacy as the pinnacle of planar magnetic reproduction for discerning listeners worldwide.
