i have always felt maggies need some room around them, and some good distance from the listening position - my own listening (equilateral) triangle has 10-11 ft legs, i have 5 ft of clearance behind the speakern panels to the front wall currently, still doing last of the dialing-in
that said, the rave reviewed little lrs is meant for smaller rooms, you might get some retailer and/or reviewer input if they would work well nearfield or semi nearfield
in that use configuration i have got to think the xa25 should do very well driving them
