and got the Gallo Ref3's. No baffle, no box resonance, no xover, CDT tweeter, etc. Eliminating all the foilables of the common speaker design is a recipe for a great sounding speaker. These trump the 3.6's in most areas except image height. The bass thump missing from the Maggies are here in spade, still breaking in so should sound even better later. Good luck on your search.
