Anyone heard Final Speakers?

I am considering final speakers.. Has anyone ever heard the floorstanding .2 model? How does it compare vs. Maggies and Martin Logans?

Was not able to listen to both speakers with the same amp, cables, etc. but the both of us agreed that the Maggies had a much bigger soundstage, better imaging and transparency. The Maggies are being run on an Ayre amp which is ok but not the greatest. And it still beat the Final.
