The sound from speakers near the floor sounds too low to me. This was very pronounced with the MMGs.

After reading your post I decided to raise my .7s while I'm cleaning the extra pets that grow from dog hair and I'm getting the same thing with the bass, soundstage, and overall sound quality. Wow! I kept checking to see if my sub was somehow working in Pure Direct on my Denon. LOL. Right now they're ridiculously too high. Time to build two risers.
Excellent! :-) Really improves things, doesn't it.

I did a lot of listening yesterday and they sound like different speakers. Really impressed. Just have to decide on height I want to settle on and start building.
I'm having someone make the risers but not sure what I should fill them with if anything. I can't quite get an answer searching it out.
Massive and rigid and damped are all good. If the tubes are hollow and you're ambitious, you can fill them with sand.
Ok thanks. Pics and review at new height when I get it all set up.
Finally have my .7s on their final risers. They're sounding great now that I gave up on having them toed in. I tried it for a while but the soundstage disappeared. So for at least in my room and set up (tweeters outside) having them straight on sounds best. I need to move them to their lowest position next on their MagnaRiser stands and I think I'm done for a while.
At my visit to the Magnepan factory, these were the only ones that they could demonstrate, in the entrance hall. Double set of LRS or LRS+, not sure which. The DWM was not used. Not much lower bass from this set.
I've never heard of them being doubled up that way. I'd expect more bass output because of the wider baffle, but the resonant tuning would be the same, so I don't think they'd turn into 30.7's!
