Maggie owners (past, present, future) what do (did) you love and or dislike about them?


I've always owned dynamic speakers, but I'm ready for something different. I remember about 15 years ago auditioning a pair of Maggie's at a small shop on the Plaza. Don't remember the model but I was astounded by the clarity. Couldn't afford them then, had 2 kids in college. Presently own a pair of Monitor Audio Gold 300's and they're very good speakers, but I've been reminiscing about the clarity of those Maggie's and I want a pair of the 3.7i's. Those of you who have experience with Maggie's let me know your love (hate) relationship with them. My room is 17 x 15 with a sloping ceiling up to 10 feet. Is that enough room for the 3.7i's to perform at their best?

I really want to reinforce what chattaudio wrote above. The magnestands are JUST WONDERFUL!!!!! I have the 1.6's with the Jupiter caps and my friends love to listen to them.. My girlfriend said. " jeeez they sound real".
Ok they do require a medium sized room and good amplification. I have squeeked by using a Pass 30.8 , however I am convinced that I need more juice. DAMN I hate to buy a new amp. Nevertheless once they magnstands are set up :the speakers are beautiful in tonality, resolution and believe it or not bass. 
The magnestands are a great speaker!!! 
Call John and spend a few minutes with him.
Best wishes
