Magicos are chesty

For better or for worse, listeners are definitely polarized about Magico speakers, in the way that they were polarized about Thiel 3.6 speakers way back when.

I'm not that polarized, really. I think set up well Magico's are pretty nice, but the ones I have heard do have a certain sound to them. You should like it.

Frequency response plots are hard to come buy, but the two I have seen kind of back me up.

While Thiel was still alive, I'm afraid the treble tuning was not for me, just like Triangle, so I was unable to appreciate any of the famous imaging/phase matching features the brand was so known for.

With all speakers, buy what you like.

Nothing says music like the sound of aluminum vibrating.....

Sure, that is why airplanes are made of MDF...

Not really, these are all gated measurements. Once put in a room, they will have SPL boost below 200hz due to room gain and doubling up on directivity pattern. Most properly designed loudspeaker will have a similar plot ( Look at the KEF LS50 or the Revel Ultima Salon2 for example).
