Does anybody have opinions on stacked( ala acoustat 1+1) for the MMGW? I do not want them mounted on wall. Would try to use them well away from room boundries with homebuilt sub. Like to hear opinions on this.
No, but on paper I worry about integration between all of that especially the panel to cone transition

Not the configuration you are considering, but I tried pairs on either side of a DIY 1/2" ribbon. The MMGWs had a very pronounced "drumhead sounding" resonance around 400Hz.
Interesting configuration you have there. Did you abandon that setup because of the resonance? Is the resonance there with just a single pair or was it just due to the side by side config. i have to say I kind of like that setup.

That Baffle width should make integration interesting ,where are you xovering the woofer..?

The resonance was in the panels, not configuration. One of those "once heard, cannot unhear" things...just an experiment that didn't last long.
As I remember, lower xo was around 200.

Done it with MMG's
Works great....And possibly the best bang for the buck in Maggie Land. I think it depends on your room whether or not you want the taller "line source." I tend to like the effect more in larger rooms. In any case, it reduces distortion in the mid bass at all but very low listening levels. I run mine with the Bag End ELF and 2 double 12" Bag End subs.
FWIW,
