[quote user="drdna"]The interesting thing about the Bottlehead people is that they are pretty good guys. "High and outside" is I think Paul Stubbelbine, who is an expert at mastering. He remastered my girlfriend's last album. I was very i...

There is a quy somewhere in the hole between Boson and California. He runs Audiofederation site, sells audio gear, is trying to make waves and to catch in the waves a damn customer who would buy audio gear from him. He also use make good pictures...

[quote user="steverino"]As for Guy Sergeant's comment about the demo choices, I assume those kind of artificial sounding mixes are done on purpose as are demos with dynamically or frequency limited demo material. [/quote] Hm, I would not be concern i...

[quote user="AllHammer"]This post has basically wiped out the entire reputation you have tried to build up in the past. Rebutting a review does not make yours right, and from my personal experiences, you are indeed far from right. I can see why some ...

[quote user="guy sergeant"]Which would you rather try to get good sound from Romy? These or Magico Mini's?[/quote]
I realy do not understated the essence of this comment. If it is a good sound then what the hell different if it came form 73-year old...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"]He use Magico monitors and with 91dB sensitivity and 4R impedance I would be very surprised it I see any SETs in there. It even more interesting that his Magico speakers are sitting right next to the wall. I do know how Mag...

[quote user="ArmAlex"]I have no experiance of Constellation sound, but I think it should not be something special. In CES they shared a room with Magico which is unbelievably unlistenable.[/quote] Room sharing at the shows is a complicated subject an...

[quote user="tokyo john"] Only reason I took notice again recently was because in the latest edition of Stereo Sound (Japanese audio magazine), an audio reviewer renowned for his love of dubious audio equipment (Krell and Magico speakers etc) rev...

Your comment about reviews today is a simple Product Placement is spot on, I kind of even envy that I was not the one who said it. Regarding the rest. It will be VERY interesting if you heard the ML2.0. When I heard both multiple times between the ...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I do not know what fantasies Tom Martin and Robert Harley had but it looks to me that Magico Ultimate II is very much the same as Magico Ultimate I, the prefix II mean a new round of marketing BS… Here are the picture...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I do not know who Tom Martin. He said that he runs The Absolute Sound and he apparently has power to delete my posts from TAS forum. I have finished with TAS forum – they fully indicated the level of the subject handli...

[quote user="de charlus"]You will find that the Wilson/Magico-type-thing....[/quote] I know that this is not the thead and this is not what you wanted to say but it is impossible to use a combination of "Wilson/Magico-type" as they are wery different...

I rather doubt that the crowd there was demanding Taiko drum demos. We need to know how the Magico rep set up the demo and what he said to the people there and what other "music" he played. I don't see a repeat of Taiko elsewhere as being likely eith...

[quote user="AllHammer"]This is your website, if I am not mistaken. I shall respect your will to express, no matter the whatever the level of insights you have to offer. You are in no way degrading me. Like I said, anyone who have really listened to ...

Let me to explain how it started. It is well know that being a Dentist is in a blood of any Jewish boy and Alon Wolf was no exception. When he was little, the local kids teased that he might grow up without a dentist license and the little Alon was r...
|
[quote user="drdna"] Oh, I see you are absolutely correct. I am very puzzled. As it says on the website, the mastering studios relocated to a new location. Maybe there was no room for the old set-up. I was only in the old studio a few years ago. I sw...

I was pitching before that to make a loudspeaker with integrated LF module you have no ethical right to charge more then let say $20K retail. If you charge more then you have no mechanism to deliver anything for the money people pay. However, if you...

I do not receive TAS but apparently they published some new BS propaganda about Magico Ultimate. I made an appropriate comment with a highly predicable noise from the ordinary suspects.

I was pointed out to the fact the Magico has a new idea of their 5 way horn-loaded speaker. I did review the Magico former 4-way project, it was very bad:

[quote user="rowuk"]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"............[/quote]Presumably the music that Magico (or other vendo...

I think 15 years back I was speaking with a famous industry person who told that the responsibility of an individual who run an audio publication is to match the stupidity of audio product to the stupidity of reviewer. he said that if manufacture ma...

[quote user=" Jonathan Valin"] Third, in Munich, because of the severely limited amount of time available for setup (and the severely limited space to set up in), Wolf DSP’d the U3s for phase but did not DSP them for time alignment.... In Cali, the U...

But the prospective Magico owner needs to know whether the Magicos reproduce the real Taiko drum closely enough to scare and demoralize all the JDs in the neighborhood. It's like those recorded barking dogs that homeowners use in place of real dogs o...

Hello Roomy,(lol)I'm so tired of traveling to listen speakers that i gonna listen to your advice, instead of the von schweikert vr-7... I shouldn't trust others ears but one speaker less on the list is fine for me.And the other point is that I have d...

Well, after all I was pointed out to the place where the annoyed wonna-be-Magico-owners came from:

Foolishness is too soft a word to describe the unspeakable garbage the Magico Ultimate is. They have mis-matched impedance drivers, improperly sized horns for the drivers, and made everything from metal. Then they go on an attempt to brag that "We us...

I didn't see Magico in Breuninger's Winners Circle in the link above. An oversight or an unhealthy bias against Taiko drums??As for Guy Sergeant's comment about the demo choices, I assume those kind of artificial sounding mixes are done on purpose as...
