Thank you, Direwolf336. My room is 12 x 16 ft. Clearly the MG 1c's were too large, although the room has good acoustics and the bass was okay. But the imaging clearly suffered. The room has large-ish openings into a front hallway and my dining room, so may explain why the bass was okay. But I can only sit about 8' from the speakers, which must be 3' out from the long wall. I've thought about the .7, but the review of the 1.7i even mention that they might be bass-light, and given that the MG 1c did pretty wll in bass, i'm not sure I want to give up a lot of bass.
In any case, your comments on the 1.6-1.7 difference are much appreciated. They reflect one comment I have heard elsewhere as well, and I've also noticed sometimes the use of an external crossover with the 1.6i. I presume this is to get better integration.
