EUREKA - The Magico is a creative tool for new experimental music - not a reproducer of old! 

Even Miles Davis is on record as calling Beethovens music "Dead Shit"............


Presumably the music that Magico (or other vendors) plays at demos is a signal to their audience as to what the speakers were designed for.

As for Miles Davis we have to ask what he meant by "shit" because in jazz speak that can be good. If he meant something bad then he must have known people would say the same thing about his music once he was not alive. Interestingly Miles' explorations of modal jazz were anticipated by Beethoven's explorations of modality in Romantic music as in his String Quartet #15. Apparently also , Beethoven towards the end of his life was considering writing a modal symphony.
