Thanks to all who responded so. Unfortunately, I would NOT get the Maggies I listed that far into the room I listened .to Martin Logan ESF-EM, and I like them, though they are not the last work word in resolution. Also placement is a problem, like the Maggies, possibly less critical.
To Martiki, that loaner policy does not apply to the new Maggie .7 speakers Reason: unknown. For a company that has been in business for at least 40 years, their customer service is marginal. I called them 3x to find out why .7 was not on the loaner list, only to find out each time that "Wendell" ( who I assume is the CEO of marketing) was out on the road, and there was no one else I could talk to. The last time I called, I spoke to the parts buyer. Wendell come home and answer some questions.
Unfortunately, my closest Maggie dealer is 40 miles away in a town named La Habra, California. I think the product would be bettered represent by a dealer in Pasadena, California. which is a community with plenty of wealthy people and transient traffic..
