About the 3.7i
The Magnepan 3.7i is a high-end, floorstanding loudspeaker that combines a true ribbon tweeter with quasi-ribbon planar magnetic bass and midrange drivers. Standing 71 inches tall and 24 inches wide, the 3.7i is a dipole, line-source speaker designed for audiophiles seeking exceptional detail, coherence, and realism. Its unique driver technology delivers a fast, transparent sound with wide, even dispersion and minimal distortion. The 3.7i is celebrated for its seamless integration of drivers, dynamic range at low volumes, and reduction of the 'Maggie grain' often associated with earlier models. While it requires ample space and quality amplification, the 3.7i offers a listening experience typically associated with much more expensive speakers. The speaker is finished with a CNC-milled MDF frame, sonically transparent grille fabric, and optional wood or aluminum trim.
