MAGNA is not a detuned, compromised version of IMMANIS.
MAGNA (dual-ribbon) is ideal for those seeking authenticity of timbre, scale & proportionality in mid-size and smaller ensembles, regardless of genre. String quartets, piano trios, singer/songwriter, classic jazz and blues, all presented with stunning clarity of space, while kicking like a mule, when the music calls for it.
Light weight and comfortable for many hours of enjoyment, MAGNA does it all with uncompromising audio excellence.
