Magnepan 1.7x

The general idea of the X series is to take the existing design of a given speaker and improve it using three primary axis of refinement: simplification, component betterment, and balancing. When it comes to high fidelity audio reproduction, less is definitely more. Simplifying a circuit in terms of fewer components, less overall wire, fewer junctions, less mass, etc. reduces signal loss, degradation, and distortion. This allows for a more pure signal to pass through the circuit and be reproduced with precision and fidelity. Almost one-for-one replacing all of the components between the speaker cables and driver with superior ones has an obvious beneficial effect.

A rigorously designed, thoroughly tested, and meticulously constructed project, the X series provides a new level of exceptional quality, elevating an awesome product to even greater heights.  With over 50 years of planar speaker expertise, tried-and-true design, and the infusion of new ingenuity, passion, and drive, Magnepan has created something special.  The X series speakers are greater than the sum of their parts, and their parts are great!
