Interesting Magico news

Thanks melbguy. I looked at the graph and comments.
They claim " The unique shape and carefully chosen materials, when combined, create the ultimate "sound pressure absorption device.".
I can't help comparing it to B&W's very simple 'tapered tube';which they claim
" Nautilus tubes taper to make the sound from the rear of each driver disappear."
I can't understand a containment device being a sound pressure "absorption" device,except in a very limited fashion - compared to B&W simple system, using the horn principle in reverse.

Magico always seemed like a company that was started by someone with knowledge of sophisticated manufacturing techniques but who wasn't a particularly good speaker designer.  They used their knowledge to create wildly overpriced products because they didn't have the experience to know how to apply their knowledge.  In any case, super high-end stuff is mostly about talk.  It's fun to discuss all the fancy techniques used even though we have no idea how much it really improves audible performance.  Sure costs a lot, though. 

Big money doesn't always mean great sound Magico speakers are good at 40% off or so.I sure hope there service got better.This being said there are many great sounding speaker out there  many companies don't get the press Magico gets or the hype that Valin who gets everything for free gives them.Great sound to everyone enjoy!!

"Big money doesn't equal great sound". Unfortunately.
