Magico - a new Mini?

saw and heard the tad very recently. good looking and fantastic sounding. would be my choice. understand the extra cost. I am of the opinion though that if you don't buy what you want you are never satisfied. hense the constant upgrade for many. even if you close your eyes.

I gotta say that to my way of viewing things there could never be a "new" Mini....That speaker was a classic,in the best sense.

I realize this is only one man's opinion,but aside from down right superb performance,it had a lovely aesthetic to it as well.That cabinet was expensive to mfgr,and I'd bet the economy and munfacturing conditions/costs came into play,to bring this model to an end....Unless your room is the size of Yankee Stadium I'd venture the guess that the Mini will do justice to about any kind of music.

The only caveat was it was a bit of a tough load,which necessitated a big(ish) amp,power wise.Other than that,does one "really" need a better speaker?

A "true" classic!!

I never buy or change equipment because the way it looks. In fact, buying "on look" is a sure recipe for disappointment. I much prefer the industrial, build like a good tool look, to the IKEA one.

Yawn...another over priced, under performing speaker from Magico.....

Sirspeedy,
I'm another who agrees with your opinion. I own the Mini II. I love the sound AND the looks. However, there may not be enough people who have heard it or have owned it, for it to be a "true" classic. I'm afraid it is, or was, a true niche product.

Sbrown,
How do you know?
