INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your purchase. The Magneplanar MG3.6/R loudspeaker was
conceived and designed for perfectionists. One of the most revealing loudspeakers
made, it will provide outstanding music reproduction when used with high quality
components. Due to the elegant simplicity and ruggedness of the design, the
Magneplanar MG3.6/R loudspeaker will give many years of trouble-free service.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The MG3.6/R speaker system consists of a pair of mirror-imaged panels, labeled "1"
and "2" (for identification). Each panel contains one, five-foot long ribbon tweeter and
one mid/bass planar-magnetic driver. The planar-magnetic driver consists of a bass
section and a midrange section on a common ½ mil. Mylar diaphragm.

The crossover components for the bass and midrange are housed in a pair of external
crossover boxes. The midrange to treble crossover components are housed in the
speaker panel and are non-defeatable.

Although the MG3.6/R system is set up for conventional single amplifier operation, the
speaker input plates provide for bi-wiring or bi-amplification as an option.
