Are you looking for bass that ruffles your pants legs, and stuns small animals and children!
The bass from planar speakers is natural and tuneful, not like rock bass through a box speaker.
Try listening to a standup double bass or cello in a real concert hall for comparison.
Adding subwoofers to the big magnepans give a noticeable shrinking of image, from 6 feet tall (image with a full range maggie) too a short bass image of a box speaker.
I hate that!
