So one of the things that I didn't realize about my MX-R Twenties is that they go 300W/8ohms 600W/4ohms but then fizzle out at 720W/2ohms. Not a problem for most speakers (for example, my earlier Scalas were fine) but I think that explains why the Maestros don't feel like they've opened up and completely let loose - they need current into 2ohms. I'll see what more watts down low does in a couple of months when my new amps come in.
Btw, I've been playing around with the tweeter jumper. Putting the tweeter jumper into the high position changes the character of the treble - more open and energetic. More "exciting" but still smooth.
