This €1,100 asking price is a strong bargain for the Magnepan 1.7i, sitting just below the 25th percentile of €1,143 from ground-truth comparable listings and well under the median of €2,109. Compared to the typical used market, this is a genuine deal that demands attention.
The 1.7i is widely revered for its open-baffle dipole design, delivering sharper clarity, tighter imaging, and deep bass down to 40Hz. Its tall, quasi-ribbon structure excels in soundstage expansion, making it a favorite among enthusiasts for both stereo and home theater. With the listing in like-new condition, likely including original accessories, this represents a prime buying opportunity for a well-loved, high-performance speaker at an exceptional price.

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.
