Jim, Ok, I apologize for the "yokel" crack, however given the way you framed your initial "CHALLENGE", it did look a like a troll or at the very least a poor choice for an approach.
Oneobgyn's kind invitation aside, I see the time, effort and impracticality of moving your speakers into someone's home and room, and their 400 some pound MAXX2's out, as being prohibitive to this , um, experiment.
And In the end, because you are so greatly enamored of the sound you get with _your_ speakers and consider them a great "value", the results you get from any comparison to WATT Puppy's or MAXX2's are in my opinion, predicatable--simply given the vast differences between the speakers presentations. One persons "favorite speaker" is almost certainly going to be different than another persons.
Having spent years owning different speakers, first the Aerial 10T's, then a succession Audio Physic speakers and now Wilsons, I view the _differences_ btw speakers as being far more obvious than any type of qualitative difference, and that is what you are likely to find.
I accept that your intentions may honorable, and not as they initially came across, but the premise and execution of this project seem a bit beyond reason to achieve a predicatble result--to me.
