Sounds like the Mini Maggies were poorly set up. Phasing between DWM and the satellites is critical and as with all planars, they need space to breathe. I heard them right after hearing the 3.7's and they were comparable, which is to say spectacular -- it's hard to believe that that sound is coming from two little speakers. This was nearfield listening, though, as desktop speakers. When I moved back a few feet from the desk, they were still good, but lost some of their big-speaker-in-a-tiny-package magic.

Not comparing them to the LS-50's, which I haven't heard, just pointing out that you appear to have heard them under poor conditions.
