Tidal Speakers owners

Looks like they were in a fairly large room and placed about 6 feet out from the back wall and 4 feet out from the side walls and about 7 feet apart - must of sounded real nice. I heard them at RMAF in a smaller room and was quite taken with their sound.

Violin by Kagermann in the tune?

Three questions

1. How many Tidal owners demo'ed Magico products too? What made you go toward Tidal?

2. Since all Tidal speakers are arriving with the BCC drivers,is there really a difference between the Contriva Diacera TT and the regular models with the new BCC drivers?

3. How big or small are the sweetspots for Tidal speakers?

Thank you in advance.

Wadav, I have only heard one good sounding Magico, the V3.

I have no idea relative to your second question.

The sweetspot with the Tidals as with all speakers is speaker width, toe-in, your room, cabling, and room treatment determined. I have a very broad sound stage.

Below is an e-mail excerpt from Jörn which may help clarify query no.2 above.
I would also add that there are a couple more of 'nice little touches' as per their specs (beside drivers) differentiating the TT designation.

"There will be no price increase at all to the TIDAL models,
Contriva / Contriva Diacera in particular since the drivers are not much
more expensive. The Sunray long excursion woofers with their short coil-long
gap design are much more expensive compared to the other drivers we build
into all other speakers we have, this was also why the TT was pretty
dramatic higher in price as well."
