MMGs

A year ago, I bought a pair of MMGs.  In my 13x22 room, placement was a challenge but finally worked it out.

Speakers are powered by an Adcom GFA-555.  The only source is a CD player through a passive pre-amp.

Now I have a little more to spend and would like thoughts on the following options:

1) Mye stands for the MMGs

2) The DWM panel with the MMGs (secondary question - can this panel be placed on a side wall perpendicular to the MMGs?)

3) 1.7s

Open to other out-of-the-box suggestions as well.

The goal is always to attain that Magnepan soundstage.  Musical tastes are female vocalists, jazz, blues.

I recently upgraded from MMG's to a pair of Spatial Audio Hologram M4's.
To me they have more of the good things I liked about the Maggies. I use a sub from Rythmik taking care of everything below 50hz.
I was curious about Maggies so I bought a used pair. I like them. Did the half razor mod on them. Seemed to tighten up the bass. I still have them.
I was intrigued about the open baffle thing. Spatial Audio seemed to be mentioned a lot. I bought a pair used off of this site. These are keepers. Easier to drive with a larger selection of affordable amps. Although I did use a few different amps with the Maggies and none of them broke a sweat. Even the 12 year old Integra AVR I keep as a backup.

Adding a good sub is a great suggestion and a good place to start if you're liking what you hear from the MMG's. I have the high pass filter from HSU Reasearch. I can crossover at 50hz or 80hz. I chose 50 because that's where the MMG's roll off.
