The review was absurd

Agree completely -- the test methods were flawed -- and I and some others raised objections in that thread.
Davey pointed out that he measured the bass response *with the speakers lifted off the floor*, a fatal measurement error -- the bass response of a dipole will be seriousy screwed if you do that, owing to an acoustic short circuit around the bottom.
There are other egregious errors as well, not the least of which is that Amir did his listening tests with *one* speaker (sigh).
Fortunately, there was a lot of pushback from people who have actually *heard* Maggies! The negatives seemed to come mostly from people who hadn't, but felt themselves experts because they'd read the review.
