After a few weeks, you'll probably need to re-voice your system with a change of ic's and speaker cables. Positioning in the room is also important--sounds like you've got 'em to close to wall behind them, self-cancellation from the backwave can occur. And as mentioned, a sub is a definite necessity with the 1.6. REL is usually recommended, but I've gotten good results with Hsu.
I have heard from several magnepan owners that they sound really bad until they are broken in for 200+ hours. Then they sound really good ! Great speaker.
Marko445 is on the money, they'll improve for about 6 months with daily use. When mine were new, I used the supplied resistors to tame the tendency to sound overly bright. After acouple months time they really snoothed out and I removed the resistors.
