I have been a Maggie owner since 1972 so I am biased - but I do have friends that use B and W and Wilson. Glad to hear you like the LRS speakers. As you move up their speaker line IMO you get a lot more sound for the money with the 1.7is. They are just over $2200, but the clarity, soundstage and vocal quality are hard to beat. The 3.7i get you to the true ribbon tweeter but cost to get there is $6300. Most posts I see on this website do not do any cost / benefit analysis. With the LSRs below $1000 - this is the best way to expand this hobby to the masses. You do need clean power to push any Maggies, but once you have the power and a good source - I use Krell and LUMIN - the sky is the limit.
Happy Listening!
