Magico M9 The new 'norm' in speakers

Magico has just debuted its new model...the M9. Weighing in at 1000 Lbs ( pity those who have to move it) and being almost 8' tall!
Luckily, they are bringing this speaker in at a bargain basement price designed to appeal to the masses...and unlike the other models in their line, financing won't be needed. Yes, for just $750,000- you can own one of these new models. 
This is certainly looking like the new 'norm' for many speaker manufacturer's. Luckily most of us have this as pocket change...luckily.

@rocray  Only good so long as you are on the third floor with non-re-enforced flooring joists.

@edgewear You bring up an interesting point. As your system gets more and more resolving and accurate, you will unfortunately hear more of the recording, warts and all. Since the vast majority of recorded music is done so poorly, you are now stuck listening to only the best recordings in order to fully enjoy the music. BUT if you are trying to re-create as close as possible to the sound of real 'live' unamplified instruments in your home, this is one of the downsides of that goal, IMHO.

@edgewear  I think that a speaker and a system that is ultra revealing is in fact a major plus. While this system will sound horrible on a lot of poorly recored music, it will also sound amazing on well recorded pieces. Therefore, I believe that one should not be looking to dumb down the system, as you seem to be implying, but instead should be looking to get the best recordings--and encourage the release of these recordings.
