Interesting that you think the larger Maggies should be more efficient (which implies they don't need any more power to drive them).

My view is that the 3-way models need more power for several reasons:

1. They have 3 drivers instead of 2.
2. Their bigger bass drivers mean they go down deeper (than the smaller Maggies).
3. Delivering down to 30 Hz sucks up more amplifier power than only delivering down to 40+ Hz.
