Ron,
I'm glad you like the mod. You're the second inmate who has tried it (not counting myself). I have to caution other Maggie owners that the resistor values were specifically chosen for the MG1.6 and likely won't give good results on other models. Its a coincidence that it works on the 2.5R.On the bass, I think the effect is due to the way the ear/brain perceives sound. Bass instruments generate overtones that extend up into the midrange. The more prominent overtones can give the impression of stronger bass even though the fundamental is weaker.
Yes, the sonic effects are as dramatic as getting a new pair of speakers, only much less expensive!
