If repeating a conversation we had you can use my name.My opinion in this matter is based around many years of owning maggies and listening to them, not any "hard" science. (although repeated validated listening may very well count as that) Real life applications often confound experts because things often simply don't behave in actual use like they thought they were going to on paper, which is why I put more stock in judging a speaker by listening to it.
I am finding my new wood frames make the highs and mids sound very much like an electrostat. Very clear and pure of tone. (granted, some maggie fans may not prefer that) The bass however goes well beyond any stat, and way beyond just about any maggie yet they have not lost the inherent maggie "sound".
The 1.6's are about half way done, but I need to find a new way to join the frames so they don't skew while clamping.
It's all about the music...
