It sounds like you have not yet bought speakers....
Magneplanar may still have their loaner (return) program going for the 1.7i speakers. A classical musician and jazz drummer combo sounds like you must live in a fairly large city, so your Maggie dealer should set this up for you. Dunno if they do it for 0.7's, but there is no such program for the 3.7's (I wanted to try those to replace my 1.5QRs).
BTW, a larger physical speaker does not mean the speaker is also larger in an acoustical sense. I called Magneplanar and Mr. Maggie (Wendell) told me the 3.7i speakers were acoustically smaller than the 1.7i. You should call them up and talk to Wendell about exactly which speaker would be best.
Maggies are perfect for your source material. They want you to use the DWMs and not dynamic subs (many do this, but they are difficult to integrate with panels). The DWMs can be made to look like coffee tables but need ot be at the same distance from your ear as the other panels.
I see this thread going into room treatments... so you may as well post a photo of your room in the section for that...
