Maggie 1.7's?

The bass is there. Just not down to sub basement levels like a good sub.

for MOST music this is no problem. Lowest note on a non-Bosendorfer Piano is about 27hz, so LOTS of speakers considered audiophile won't do it.

Pipe organ? down to a nutty 16hz. How many full range speakers will do THAT?

Good setup in a proper room helps all speakers....even those pesky panels.

good to know, magfan. I haven't heard them yet, my ears on the streets all said good speaker, just no bass, no matter what the amp. Hopefully I'll get to hear a pair soon and hear for myself.

Wow I use a Mac 402 and a Mac 2300 tube preamp with my maggies I love the sound. I don't care what people tell you let Your ears be the judge.

Aolprodj,
You are the FIRST person I've ever seen post with a Maggie / Mac combo.

I know their must be more, but I simply have not seen it in print. ........

Do you think the MA6900 has enough guts? I don't do ear-bleed levels?

The reason is they are busy enjoying the music.I had a MA6900 with a pair of Maggie 3A'S It was ok not great,the MA7000 Was very good.Love my Maggies I had 3A'S for twenty years now have the 3.6R
