Magneplanar -- I'm doing the SMG crossover upgrades

[E-Stat]

If there is as much potential in these things as are stated, I'm going to attempt to release it.

I've heard quite a bit of good buzz about the Gunned Maggies. On the other hand, Magneplanar is getting a nice reaction to their new mini flavor at CES. There is a pic on Stereophile here. You have to scroll a bit to find them, but they really are small.

Nice article/picture. That little panel was supplemented with (of all things) a Magnepan subwoofer module. I wonder how compatible this new subwoofer module might be with other Maggie speakers up to and including, maybe, the 1.6.

A subwoofer! Is that the smaller boxes adjacent to the speakers? Is that something Magnepan once built? I noticed the wood finish matched the speaker panels but I didn't know what the purpose of those four boxes.

Are they dipole? I cannot imagine a traditionally designed subwoofer to fully integrate with Dipoles as they would be out of phase with either the front or rear portion of the sound energy emanating from a Maggie.
