We can get a better picture of which speaker is truly better if those contributing their favorites have heard a good number of the top speakers.
Include in your response the speakers that didn't take the gold.

"MAGICO MINI 2 goes down to 32hz in my room"

Wouldn't doubt it. It seems to do about as much is possible for its size. My Dynaudio Contours (smaller/ported) may go down to 40hz or so.

I did not find bass to be lacking with the minis for teh most part. Not the nth degree of muscle in the low end for certain types of music, but very impressive still for its size.
My old Eggleston Rosa's went down to about 35 hz in my room and my Mini II's go down at least to that and maybe to low 30's, but the quality of that mid and upper bass is something to behold. They are expensive, but above about 35 hz, they are extremely musical.
Peterayer Wonderful MAGICO MINI 2 setup im sure they sound wonderful as well .
Peterayer, great system and component selection, I bet you are getting the most out of your Magicos.
A few observations:
-People like the speakers they currently own.
-In general, you usually get what you pay for.
-There's a difference between favorite and best
-Comparing different designs without qualification is silly.

Would be nice to hear from someone with the perspective of years, who's had objective long-term experience with the true best (price no object).
