Regarding your center channel needs: Any KEK center channel, from the R 600’s and up will blow the Maggie’s doors off. But here’s the deal, most center, and for that matter all box speakers, lack one thing that allows them to image like Slagmapans, a rear firing driver. That's the whole shebang, want Maggie imaging? Add a rear firing midrange/tweeter. I prefer adding a rear firing full range driver like the Fostex FE168EZ 6.5" Full Range Sigma Series. It does two things. It adds "presence" and it adds that feathery ambiguity to the harmonic overtones.

I still have a pair of 1.7s that I bought from an audio store in Michigan. I had my modder rebuild the crossovers into an outboard box. He described the parts inside as cheap junk. The rebuilt xover sounded much, much better. To my ears they sound ok stock. Nevertheless, to my ears a pair of subs is mandatory. |
