I had the opportunity to hear the magico ultimo, in san Francisco. After i heard it, i read the article in absolute sound, and i must say that the article describes accurately the sound of this system. The room is relatively small for that big speakers, and heavily damped. The sound was crystal clear, very natural , and excellent image.
the beryllium diaphramas are certainly a main reason for that.
the bass , and mid bass, I did not like it so much. Actually, I had the impression , the big mid-bass horn did not play at all. Only the other drivers. The bass was changed, with a jmlab woofer . there was very high humm from the amplifiers .
its interesting that one of the two owners, that have this speaker now, had avantgarde trios before, and changed to this speaker. I am shure the avantgardes are not so accurate, not so crystal clear, not with such 3d imaging, but, the live likeness is wonderful. its still the speaker, wich I most like of all I heard until now.
