That’s news that I haven’t heard.good question I would like to know myself as a owner of the 30.7s.

Bigger price jumps than US inflation!

Have other US audio companies had as large an increase in prices.

Why is this?

Agree but Magnapan speakers have always being incredible value.

It’s the first time I remember Magnapan putting there prices up.

There still bargain priced compared to there rivals.

I'm not sure about putting their prices up, but are there still any for sale?? As far as I can tell, Magnepan has almost gone under! Sad, but true. I bought a new pair of 1.7i's last year, and the LH panel was faulty, with a loose floppy panel which buzzed/vibrated against the backplate with certain bass notes at louder than 'quite quiet' volumes. I was promised a replacement 9 MONTHS ago, but now no-one answers emails nor the phone lines!
Has anyone else had trouble with responses from them?

"Gone under"?? My understanding is that they have been very busy with very long delivery times as a result. Probably also a lack of components because of the C 19 pandemic. But "gone under"? I think not.

JP - I'm afraid your 'understanding' is incorrect. May I ask where your understanding came from?
There are only TWO employees there now; one guy in 'marketing' and another who's just returned from a many year absence, to solely occupy the 'Service' Dept! Apart from the owner, that's it! Long delivery times are no doubt due to the fact that there's no-one in the manufacturing dept now, or there wasn't 2 Months ago!

F ex this from Audio Asylum:
Planar Speaker Asylum (audioasylum.com)

And a new website:
Magnepan– magneplanar

Maybe they have holiday now, many factories in my part of the world close a few weeks during the summer.

Hi Jp, Thanks for the info. It seems they've got things up n running again in the last couple of Months. It aslo seems Erik, in marketing, has been working on the new site. They may have manufacturing staff now, let's hope, as I'm still waiting for a 1.7i replacement panel. I've tried calling from here, the UK, at great cost, but no-one has answered the phone, and it costs me £10 to just leave a message on their machine, which no-one responds to!
