A while back, I may have heard that Magnepans were owned by a
surprising percentage of Stereophile subscribers, on the order of 20%.


But are Magnepans truly "High End"?

That's a bit of the mystique - they sound like high-end" speakers,
yet are relatively low-priced. It's not surprizing that people
who are frugal with their money,(despite what they recommend)
would seek a lower cost alternative like this.

It's the old "So what car do you drive?" aimed at the car salesman.
Most of the time it's not the overpriced crap they are selling.
