My end game speaks.

Every Focal speaker I have heard is brilliantly detailed, and also fatiguing after a bit. My friend loves his, and the hotter highs are his cup of tea. Never heard the Magicos you are considering. If it were me looking, I'd add Vivid Audio and Joseph Audio for comparison.....not sure if you'd be able to audition though.

Safe harbor statement:  I'm a Focal owner.  The Focal's are front ported while the Magico's are sealed.  You will perceive a very different bass presentations from the two speakers.  For this reason, based on your described ear, I think you will prefer the bass from the Focal's.  

My Focal's reside in a fully treated room and while the top end is lively, it's not bright or fatiguing.  The Focal's should play very nicely with your Mac gear.  Good luck and cheers!

For all the abuse Magico gets I find them to be a really well made solid speaker. They do need lots of power and big amps that sound god are expensive. I think most magico speakers are sealed so the bass will sound difference, and again might want even more adjustments.

Never heard the Focal but they're known for being really detailed, so if you are using digital, again big money to get it right but probably big rewards too. Can you take a $300 airline flight to hear them both? I don't like packing and shipping a beast of a speaker like this, and it sounds like you don't either if you are looking for "end game."

Back in the day had some Adcoms 555s on some Klipsh horn speakers with a sub I loved that setup, but was young those days..... lol 

+1 Focal. I’ve heard big TOTL Focals and big TOTL Magicos. I like the Focal. Magico was sterile comparatively. IMHO.
