Nulls at the sides, tops, and bottoms of dipole planar speakers reduce the chances that low frequency energy will be transmitted through walls, ceilings, and floors. The downside is that most Maggies and other dipole speakers need to be placed fairly far away from wall boundaries in order to sound their best, which is not good news if you live in a small apartment...
