Maggies 1.6's take oodles of power to "open them up". Some comments about lack of bass, are due to the fact that many people are under-powering them. Figure AT LEAST 250 wpc (4 ohm load, which is nice, as this is closer to a resistive and not an impedence load). I was pushing 500 wpc [RMS], and NEVER had a problem with anemic bass. The 1.6's take a long time to break in, as well!
