Tremendous visit
I sold a giant pair of Wilson speakers to upgrade to the Magnepan 20.7's. No regrets. Magnepan has a legendary reputation as an audiophile speaker, and they offer amazing value in every price range. I've owned all sorts of other flagship speakers from ESLs to horns, and I'm happy to stick with my Maggies.

Picked up a pair of LRS in 2021. Best speakers I've ever heard. A little light on the bass, but what bass you hear is tight and accurate. For vinyl listeners, you will hear things you never knew existed within tracks. Absolutely incredible accuracy and reproduction. They get very loud and pull plenty of current from my 2010 vintage Sony receiver. As for longevity, time will tell, seems like a delicate design that may not handle high volumes
