    They look like a Livio Cucuzza design (that works for Sonus faber, ARC, McIntosh), but are not. Livio likes the design though!

    Re: OMG - have you seen those Magnepans !?

    This would double or triple the price of Maggies. Anyone willing to pay the up-charge would likely be looking at other speakers.

    They could at least offer this as an option. I bet many would opt for it.

    The finished product looks terrific. This is how the Maggies should look - at least the 3.7i, 20.7 and 30.7.
