How about these.
Almost new condition,
Can go very loud for a True 100% Ribbon Speakers.
Unlike any other I've Heard.
R20 000.00


Hi GMaestro and many thanks for the offer! My own experience with stats (Quad 57) is that they are top refined , yet absolutely limited to a certain musical niche. Vocals, chamber orchestral, acoustic jazz, etc.  Which would probably do not more than 10% of my listening. Looking for something with punch, slam and great transient dynamics ability. Magnepans are unlikely to excel in that area or am I mistaken?

Yes, Maggies are for a more refined listening Experience.

No Box sound just pure music, they can however have a good bass response not like the Quad 57's that does not have a good bass response.

If you go for the larger Maggies , they might just surprise you..
The 1.6QR that I have can go pretty loud, with a good bass response. But they are not made for what you are looking for.

You should just for interest sake come and have a listen, you might just be converted.

Regards.
