*Because there are no universally accepted methods for loudspeaker measurement,
frequency response specifications may be stated by most manufacturers without
reference to measurement techniques and/or specific locations in rooms. Magneplanar
loudspeaker frequency response curves are minimum average performance levels that
may reasonably be expected in normal installations.
**New Magneplanar MG3.6/R speakers will not display their full bass potential. After a
month or two of use the bass response will lower 5Hz or more. At this point the
response will stabilize and the speakers rated performance (or better) can be realized.
While this 5Hz or more of lower bass response is important, the most important factors
in obtaining good bass response from the MG3.6/R speakers are room size and
geometry, wall material, and speaker placement.
