Magnepan Tympani 1D, worth the time?

I use Magneplanar Tympani IV bass panels (modified) along
side of Martin Logan Summits (woofers disconnected) and
the subwoofer is Eminent Technology TRW-17 rotary subwoofer
that extends the bass down to below 1 hz!! Incredible low
level detail as well as truly awesome power and realism.
