I’m looking for some diffusors to put behind my big Maggies. Anyone have any suggestions for best option?

The best bar none are the GIK Acoustics Polyfusors. They are designed specifically for dipole speakers like the Maggie‘s. Four of them are required and the cost is quite reasonable.

Not strictly diffusors but I used the GIK Tri-Traps linked below with the “Range Limiter” feature to reflect some high frequencies from the back wave of my Sanders 'stats.
