ptrok,
Thank you. I really love the Mini Maggies, but they are extremely demanding speakers. They can't be placed near a wall, two to three feet from the rear wall is essential. They need a lot of current (amps), and the little Jolida won't cut it. Bass punch/dynamics aren't a strong suit, so hip hop won't sound great. Jazz and classical would be awesome. The PSB is a lot easier to drive and has more bottom-end oomph. No one speaker does it all, you have to decide what's most important for you.
