Angeboten wird „MAGNEPLANAR LRS+“ von Magnepan / Magneplanar als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5753948279 endet am 28.07.2026 um 06:09 Uhr.
€1,500 is a bit ambitious versus the recent used market, sitting above the €1,533 75th percentile only very slightly? No — with your anchor data, it’s actually just above the upper end of the typical band, since the median is €1,254 and the 75th percentile is €1,533.
That means this is more of a top-of-market ask than a bargain, even in good condition. The upside is that these are widely respected planar speakers: open, fast, and superb for imaging and midrange clarity when properly placed and paired with enough clean power. If the panels are healthy, the socks/frame are tidy, and there’s no buzzing, sagging, or prior repair history, it can still be a sensible buy — just not a standout deal at this price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
