Hey, if you don't get the Maggies you may find yourself always wondering if you made the right choice.
EXACTLY! That's what my instinct tells me right now (although I still have to listen to a couple of additional brands).
If I eventually decide after an in-home auditioning that I cannot place the Maggies properly in our room, then I may well postpone the upgrade altogether for another decade. I am by no means unhappy with my Hales -- so, unless I am convinced that the new speakers will provide me with a "quantum leap" in sound quality (which I believe the Maggies will), it's not worth doing.
