Not quite total BS

Sure, 32 to 64 wpc will get you 100 dB peaks (presuming the 86 db is accurate, and the numbers relate to whether that is 1 watt into 4 or 8 ohms).

However - the sound pressure level of the MG 3.6 doesn't taper off with distance at the same rate as your typical box & cone/dome loudspeakers.

Not saying the Eidolons need 600 wpc either, but their sound level will drop off with distance much more quickly than the Magnepans.
