In Reply to: Perception of Maggie Bass response posted by Socrates on June 2, 2000 at 20:33:42:
As has been said before, mostly in reviews of Maggies, the quality of the sound, and especially the bass, is determined by how a speaker loads a room. Cone drivers move air in a manner completely different from how a planner or electrostatic driver will. This goes a long way toward the sound differences you've noticed. Keep in mind room size (as with any speaker) and placement (a BIG qualification with Maggies) will have a lot to do with your perception of bass reproduction. Your points are valid, however. Maybe that's why some recommend the use of a quality sub-woofer with Maggies??!!
Also, both previous posters have made quite valid points. It does take quite a bit of power to make Maggies sing, but a Maggie buyer should know that going in.
All I know is that my 1.6's, in a small 15.5' x 13' x 7' room, offer up bass of better quality than any other speaker I've had in house (all cone drivers) before. Hey, as Steve Rochlin say, "Enjoy The Music."John Crossett
