They absolutely suit certain instruments, but Maggies get out of their element rather quickly. Of course, I only had them for less than a year, and didn't experiement with tons of diffrerent gear. We all have our own definition of what neutral is, but to me Magnepan sounds like they use a sheet of cheap aluminum foil for drivers. And no, I've never heard or seen speakers with tin foil.

PS - If I don't hear pops and clicks, they just dont sound neutral to me
