Wazoo and Josh make good points. Josh, my point was that Magnepans' are unforgiving, i.e., revealing, i haven't had any conventional speaker or otherwise, that give what they receive. On the good side, Magnepans' make good recordings sound better too.
Boy do I agree with Waz, that it can be a trade off without subs. With subs you truly can get the best out of the Magnepans', e.g., a wonderful full soundstage and imaging and with ample bass from the subs.
I also agree that if it doesn't feel right or suits the listeners ears, there is no use to force it and to follow your heart/ears.
