That's a great thing about this hobby, everyone has their own opinion on what sounds best to them. And lets face it, none of it really sounds like a real un-amplified concert. For example, I have never listened to a system that truly sounded like a real piano.I could live with box or planar speakers. However there is something about box less speakers that I just love.

I seem to use the term "presentation" when it comes to liking the planar sound and admittedly is not for everyone...which is ok...
When I owned my 1.6's, I could not find a box speaker that did what they did in the same price range...
Box speakers that I liked were from Thiel, Joseph Audio, TAD and the 800 B&W nautilus series, the diamond tweeters were an improvement for that series... But all these speakers were out of my price range...when I broke the piggy bank and took the plunge to upgrade the 1.6's, I bought the Maggie 3.7's and could not be happier...
IMHO...I have to spend allot more money to get comparable sonics out of a box speakers than what I got from 1.6's and now my current 3.7's...that is the Maggie value...if I was not living in a condo, I would add a pair of Rel G2's and still be under $10K for a truly full range system...
As Maggie owners we may sacrifice deep deep bass for tuneful tight base down to about 35-37 kHz...dynamics with the 3.7's are not shy by any means...
Thanks
Mark
I absolutely agree! Even with the box speakers you listed, they still will not have the "presentation" that the 3.7 have. Or the 1.7's IMHO.
