I have had a number of speakers in my little room. MMGs, Martin Logan Electromotion ESLs, Maggie 1.6s and Triangle Celius. The problem with the MMGs and Maggies in general is that they need more space and more power than most other speakers. While normally the M-L can be used 3 or 4 feet from the front wall the Maggies need 5 or 6 feet (or more) to get the rear wave matched to the front wave for good bass performance.
At 600 bucks the MMG is hard to beat but you have to bend to their demands or they will not be satisfactory. Don sounds like he would still like to have some control over his living space so maybe some conventional speakers would be a better bet. Upscale is discounting some Triangle Heliades, which are very nice speakers and would work with all electronics in this small room. Just a thought.
