From my experience with the MG-I...

the sweet spot is DEFINITELY FINITE. Sure, the musicians sounded as if they were in my room, but the Maggies have no place for general walk-around listening enjoyment. Heck, I could not even lean over without losing the "presence" these speakers offered. Leave your chair, and the effect is totally lost. (Made me long for my old JBLs. Say what you want about "imaging" ability of many JBLs, but they can sure fill a room with sound.) These are definite "inmate" system speakers. My Maggies are stored until I have an appropriate "cell."
