RE: And yet...

Their core competency is the design and fabrication of the panels and electronics. I'm pretty sure all the cabinetry along with the steel frames found on the "U" series is outsourced. The electronics are pretty much hand assembled as well, so I suspect there is no "re-purposing" of standard units.

Maybe they don't think a 4000$ 1.7 would sell? Or a 3.7 at 8500$?

No, but a $25k "super 20.1" might. I seriously considered buying 20.1s and heard an exceptionally well driven pair. I just didn't find the same level of coherency or low level resolution that my stats provide. FWIW, it was Maggies that turned me into a planar fan back in the 70s and I've owned them before.
