subwoofers and panels don't mix


i have yet to experience a subwoofer that mated well with a panel speaker--ribbon, stat and planar magnetic.

each time i have heard a combination of a cone driver with a panel it sounds like two speakers. the blend is not seamless.

can anything be done to make the transition from cone to panel sound like a one speaker system, rather than reveal 2 different driver types ?

I have been using MGllla's with a Vanersteen sub for a long time. The vandy is just as fast as the maggies, if not faster. The combo is seamless with added benifit of the bass panels being cut off at 80hz, letting the middrange panels open up. Panels and subs can and do work well together, just finding a "fast enough" sub is the trick.
