Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing?


A while back I was very enthusiastic about these speakers. They look nice and supposedly supposed to sound very nice. I’ve heard them a few times and the level of precision and accuracy is very good. But is there too much science going on to create the speakers that makes them at times a little uncomfortable to listen to for more than a few minutes.

Are modern age speakers going nuts with all the science?

All the Magico haters seem to be out in force here. They can’t handle the fact that a speaker like any competent is supposed to add nothing to the sound. Magico corrects all the errors, or most of them, that other loudspeakers have. This intern gives the listener more or what the recording sounds like; a more accurate representation of that recording, good or bad. This is what most haters can’t handle. 

Hiendnmore Magico speakers are superb but you have to match them in the system. Nothing is automatic.Others heard them unmatched so their opinion will not be positive.

That’s the problem because there is a lot of good music poorly recorded and it’s really nice to be able to comfortably listen to it. So this pure accuracy you speak about that magical magico has accomplished may not be the greatest for those who want to be comfortable listening to music.

And then to say that if you don't like how it sounds it's because you have done a poor job matching all the equipment to make it optimal is absurd.  It's a marketing gimmick because there are people out there not happy with it just because they don't own all the precise recommended components you need to make it work properly.  Gosh can you imagine sitting down for a really good meal and saying oh I don't like the main course because all the side dishes have impacted how it tastes to me - this would lead to mass starvation.

A lot of people would love to have them so apparently they are not too shabby. 

Some people would love to have them just because they’re expensive. Personally, I think they are some of the best made speakers. With the exception of the M6s,  their built quality doesn’t translate into me liking any of the Magicos that I’ve listened to (S3s, S5s, S7s, M3s). I really like the M6s.
