Hello Romy!The drivers with rubber surround you saw/heard were remakes from ATD (those who manufacture the drivers formerly used in the Magico Mini). The original Görlichs have textile surrounds....

So, basically, another $30k mini-monitor?Could you be more specific on the sound development, propagation and decay of the enclosure with the tap test?That white actually looks soothing, kind of like white opal. But if you want it black, why di...

I would not restrict myself to the idea that things need to be a certain way or a certain configuration of the drivers or ports based on theory alone. I think it is important to ask what is interesting about the sound that the new speaker introduces...

Recently I had my second extended visit to hear Macondo system. I decided to post my listening impressions because this is one of the two best in home installations I have ever heard. The pictures you have seen of the Macondo system look quite ...

I heard today the Magico Model 6 loudspeakers about which the audio industry pimps of all calibers created so much stink lately. I did not have a chance to listen Magico extensively: a little guy who felt the he owed the room begun to jump in my ...

Well, I did some research and consulted with my network people and it looks like it might be unfortunately-expensive project. Still it will not be what I want.
They recommended me to go for what they call NAS (network attach storage). It tuned out t...

I used to listen to one of those German tube table radios. Graetz Sinfonia or whatever.IIRC it had a SEP stage with some EL84 and a plastic kind of mini-horn for HF and in general was running oldtubes, has never been cleaned etc. But nevertheless aft...

So i'm wrong...it's weird because he likes only horns and critizize magico mini.He has the same narrow minded way of thinking music (dynamic, dynamic and dynamic)You have an ideal of music reproduction very precise, why don't you try to make speakers...

Samuel, I do not think that it was me, and if it was signed by me then it was one of the numerous attempts of the idiots to impersonate me. It happened many times before. I did not talk with Jonathan Valin in direct emails and I do not ever hide...

[quote user="jessie.dazzle"]Forgive me for being so forward, but I have been holding it in for some time, and am right now, at this very moment, ripe for saying that I see this MiniMe thing as being analogous to an affair with a capricious little mis...

[quote user="Joe Roberts"] You have not heard Mangers, Aporia, or Loth-X speakers yet you thought sniffed yourself into an incredibly accurate picture of what they sound like. Great trick! [/quote]
It is not correct. I did not report the “in...

It is official Roomy the cat is going to sell speakers !Few quote on another forum : Jvalin "you are planning to build and market for a good deal more money than the Mini IIs." (26 000$ for the Mini II)Roomy respond "I have only to you with a private...

Edgar, I completely miss you in all of your findings and I also was thinking about 15-in toy with a pair of sunspeak passive radiators. Indeed, Tannoys reinforced by sanspeak passive radiators is a magical configuration. I wonder do you dri...

This is an interesting subject. My system certainly follows the 'form follows function' rule but I have wondered how the looks of a speaker (or entire system) effects the listener's perception. Of course we have all experienced some male grunti...

If I am not mistaken, this is your website, filled with pages after pages of pure verbal diarrhea. I have no plan to interfere with you building your own audio religion. You can fill your website up with any opinion you want, regardless of the level ...

Stitch I can't understand why some people in this site are trying to be a mini Romy,you included. I read what Romy writes and you don't need to repeat it.It's very strange you KNOW what was playing in that particular room without being there. Anyhow ...

I tried dozens of different PA speakers at home in the last 5 years, and I honestly can say the only speakers could be used at home are the Danley SOundlabs speakers - at least according to my experience. The new SM60 is a very room friendly speaker,...

Yesterday my machinist called me with apologies. His original estimate for the MiniMe material (I went for G10) were around $700- $750. It was no BS as we were looking is big fat book with the actual prices. He said that the price for G10 during the ...

The air in my small orange grove is still enough most of the time, and I actually enjoy smoking there - when weather permits and the air is - still. If you don't yet have a garden and/or fruit trees, this is another thing to enjoy, with the adde...

Yes, you are correct. The UHF are pro Canadian people and they do have the Canadian bias. Interestingly that the Canadian audio generally has very Canadian bias as well. It is very unfortunate as I always thought that bias should be for better Sound ...

So that's the story. I've never really paid any attention to the Magico speakers. I Googled their name and saw the words "Extreme Fidelity." That instantly killed my curiosity and I did not continue searching. Just anothe...
