What in particular did you prefer in the maggies and what did you like better about the MLs?
Follow Ups:
I was unable to compare the 1.6 and ML under the same condition (room, equipment etc.). Here are my impressions. This may change with placement. I just placed the ML's where my smga's were.
Increased detail ML
More bass pressure ML
Lesser quality classic rock blues etc. is listenable ML
Does not have to be loud to sound good ML
Imaging even
Tighter bass 1.6
More realistic guitar and horn sound 1.6
Size and weight 1.6
No power cords 1.6
Largely as expected, but I did not remember brass being that much of an issue with the MLs. They lacked dynamics to swing a realistic big band brass section, but had decent enough renditions. Not quite as good as a 2.5 or 3.x, but I would not have guessed that even an SMG can outdo them in that regard.
My comparison was to the 1.6 and the ML's. Both are much better than my old smga's
