Maggie 1.6QR versus "high-end" monitors.

This month's Absolute Sound placed Maggie 1.6QR in its "recommended system" column. This speaker has been on the market for a couple of years and I continually see good reviews from Audiogon members. Do these speakers produce much bass at 40Hz?? and can a high power high current amp of say 200RMS make a difference in the bass performance?? How does this speaker compare to comparably priced monitors??

There is at least one speaker that combines many of the best qualities of Maggies with the best qualities of dynamic speakers.

Or check out any of the Audio Artistry models.

Is anyone familiar with the VMPS line, especially the RM-40? From the reviews and forums at www.harmonicdiscord.com they could fill the gap between planar and dynamic speakers.

If you got the room and like the physicality of the music being played, go Maggy go.
In a smaller room thought, some mini will let you use some beautifull single ended triode and allow you to enjoy the schow, even at appartement sound level.
