Since this discussion is going on I'll add to it. First a quasi is just that quasi. It's a planar. Second most Maggie planars panels are single ended, magnets on just one side. This means as the move further there is less control and as they move further they have to move non linearly and move less than they should given the change in input. This adds up to higher distortion and to noticeable compression. Planar drivers should be push/pull with magnets on both sides for Maggies and their ilk and also for electrostatics(for which I know of no current single ended ones)
