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.

I heard the Wilson WAMM's years ago. I never heard a degree of separation of orchestral instruments like I did that day on a DDD recording- nothing special. This was a $95,000 system (4 pieces).
So it "gave me an idea" of what David Wilson was striving for. 
So what is Magico doing these days? My guess is moving a LOT of air in this present-stage-of-engineering with the most inert box you can build. I used to admire pictures of the Q7!- so what do I know? Can you put a Very Good Recording on that system and re-create the sound of that concert hall in Vienna? I don't know, but let Magico do what they want to do. Wilson also will continue to upgrade their speakers, as will many manufacturers in Denmark, Holland, France, the U.K., and so on. Who knows but someday China may produce the best hi-fi company in the world. Luckily I can think back and remember the 1st time I heard Watt-Puppies 3/2's completely disappear in the room. Later I didn't buy the speakers, but I bought the CD!  It's a fun hobby, so buy what you want "after" you buy the groceries, pay the rent, etc. It took me many years to get the system I presently have, like climbing stairs one step at a time.
Any speaker that cost that much money yet tells you at the end of the review to buy a pair of subwoofers is bullshit if I'm going to spend that kind of money I think not only better just put me in a coma with the greatest music I've ever heard it also should do my dishes
I don’t know if a new reply will bring an old thread to life but please permit a question from a sojourner in these parts: Who or what is Kenjit? The Kenjit Society? How has he risen above the proletarian masses of Audiogon users to merit his own society? A cursory examination—emphasis on cursory—of his posts doesn’t reveal any particular genius.

Not to put them down. Those posts swim well with the typical Audiogon post, which is to say that they drip with wit and wisdom. But how did he get his own society?

One thing is for sure—I’m not spending $1MM on speakers without approval from the Kenjit society.
"for $750K I'll hire my favorite band to come and play for me for an hour. Its like I was really there."

Is that what Polka bands are charging these days?
