Sound Lab vs Magnepan 20.7

Going completely off the reservation here. After reading for months about the Legacy Aerius Loudspeaker--raves about transparency bass thru the floor etc. And, even comparisons to the best 'Panels' in terms of resolution--just one more compulsive question, anyone out there that's heard this short list of SL's Maggies and Aerius?

While the Legacy Aerius are fine loudspeakers, I do not find them to be at all comparable to Sound Labs or Maggies. The Aerius are fine box speakers, but do not 'float the sound in air' the way that a fine panel speaker does. I also do not find them to be as seamless or transparent. I prefer the true ribbon Maggies, either the 3.7 or 20.7 to the SLs, but that is strictly a matter of taste and space. The really large SLs are awesome, but they are just too large for most normal size non-dedicated listening rooms. I also prefer the high end of the Magenpan true ribbon, as the finest reproducer of its kind I have ever experienced. Of course, YMMV applies!

Thanks Bill.
Amongst all the reviewers' hyperbole and exaggerations, is the truth from a relatively unbiased audiophile.
From your post it appears that you may own the Maggies. So, thanks for the input.
