RE: Harsh vocals in Magnepan 3.7i

Did you mean this: "Stated another way. Suppose we play the 3.7 and note the midrange SPL levels. We then disconnect and hookup the 1.7 without changing our system volume control. We note the same midrange SPL levels in either case.
The 3.7 was obviously making more level in the bass when it played. But did the amplifier have to supply more power to achieve that? Think about that a bit."

Was the impedance higher for the 1.7's at lower frequency or not? If not, then I would think that with the larger panels more of the current was turned into acoustic energy instead of being dissipated in resistance.

Given that I bet they are a few ohm resistive loads at DC (room heaters) I doubt the 1.7 has a high impedance at low frequencies.
