Most recordings of acoustic bass solos I heard were always amazing: always positioned dead center, seamless from top to bottom, finger plucks, fret vibration,etc.
With Maggies (and I assume the majority of other planars) you sense the notes are originating from the 'body' of the instrument itself, not simply being fired at you like traditional box speakers tend to do. And don't get me started on bowing on an upright...Just amazing.
