Well, first...

...the MG-1.6 isn't a true ribbon model.

What exactly do you mean by "framed & braced"?

Gunned MMG's have better, lower resistance inductors.
They also do not have their panels raised a foot in the air and are near vertical.
Gunned Maggies have hardwood frames, solid bases and struts.
The Jupiter caps have nothing to do with the mid-bass.

I feel these things contribute to the mid-bass performance I got from my Quasi-Gunned MMG's. One day after I did the mod, I was crankin' them up pretty good and standing about 18" in front of one of the speakers. I distinctly felt air passing by my legs being driven by the panel on bass notes. I wouldn't call it "flapping my pants leg" like you'd get from a big cone sub, bit it was suprising none-the-less.
