Magnepan Placement

I have just picked up a pair of used SMG's and have to say, even thought they may not be the most recent version or the top o the heap, these things are amazing! Which leads me to my question, are there any "do's and don't" regarding placement? I have read Jim Smith's "Get Better Sound" and have applied his rules of thumb regarding placement from the rear wall, etc; however, I wanted to see if there are any secrets out there? Thanks in advance!!

Most Maggies require a lot of power and current from the amp to deliver to the max. Same with SMGs I would think. Do not underpower for best results. Also make sure amp can drive lower impedances effectively.

Regarding location, well out from rear wall as mentioned. Fine tune placement until things are just right.
