"Do they sound as panelistic as I imagine they might? Like a pair of giant subwoofer Magnepan panels...? That tight, 'tympanic' unboxy bass?"
I've wondered exactly the same thing.
One thing they won't do in this form is tune out floor and ceiling reflections like a line array. A full-height line array should I think completely eliminate vertical room modes. However, it's easy with woofers to space them out to create a line array, you just want them to be spaced less than half a wavelength apart from one another and from their reflected images (the spatial Nyquist frequency). So forex two woofers, each 1/4 of the room height from the ceiling and floor.
This would also make it harder to create a passive SBA by sitting the same distance from the rear as the woofers are from the front.
