OK, Maggies are Line source speakers. Jim espouses Line array speakers for the various reasons that a number of people have posted here.

Marlboro explained that, in his view, even a cheap line array will beat out most point source speakers, and that to put even an inexpensive or minimal line array(Russell's, i.e.) in competition with a point source is an uneven match-up.

So what if you put a line source speaker like a Maggie in competition with a line array that has midranges, woofer(s), and tweeters. What does this battle look like? What are the benefits of the maggie, and how do they compare to a good line array?
