Perhaps I'm in a minority here, but while I enjoy your videos, I very much prefer your old style writing 
If I read you correctly the big midbass did not release the "intellectual tension/demand" of Macondo/Milq. Perhaps I'm wrong or oversimplifying but it seems to me that at least a part of your "problem" with Macondo is an incarnation of the eternal intellect/emotions dichotomy with Macondo being shifted too much on the intellectual side.
I think I remember your very particular description of the "singular event" (it must have been earlier than 2012, right?) Each sound came as a bubble of a micro nuclear explosion. Resembled the famous description from Solaris of Stanislaw Lem, just more involving.
On a side note, it does take some courage and sincerity to admit that such a grandiose, *own* project was "just" "fine and superbly usable" and you don't miss it. Chapeau bas Romy, most audio people would swear by their mothers it was the best thing in the galaxy even if they bought it instead of making themselves. BTW, what happened to a French guy from here who was building a similar huge midbass from a reinforced plaster?
Good luck
