Magico vs the world


Everywhere I look I only see people (end users and professional reviewers) raving about magico. Build quality, incredible sound, etc... everyone just loves them, especially the modern series, A3, M series, S series (mk2 variant). It is impressive for sure. But I am curious, what speakers have you heard that you compared to magico that you like as much or maybe even better?

@freedomgli I think YG is definitely interesting. I enjoyed the Sonja 1.3, but I think they have a few problems. First it seems their cabinets are not as nice as magico’s more curved designs and especially their mixed carbon fiber + aluminum design. Second being modular I think maybe their overall cabinet quality may not be as inert as a large monolithic aluminum cabinet like magico. And finally.. I’m a bit concerned about their small bass drivers. Yoav Geva mentioned how the way they are designed they perform similarly to a 12 inch driver (their 10.25 inch)... but I just don’t know.

It seems YG is just not as loved or wildly respected as magico. Is it because of their design not being as good magico. Or is it lack of marketing? Lack of dealers? I just don’t know. It seems magico puts more nuance, technology and sophistication into their speakers..monocoque carbon fiber, nanographene drivers, diamond coated beryllium. This is all fancy stuff and maybe it doesn’t translate to amazing sound... but from what I heard it does.

All I can say for sure is I am definitely eager to listen to the Sonja 2.3 and perhaps compare it again to the magico m2 or m3? Maybe even m6?
The Tonda's are gorgeous.

Despite being absolutely entranced by the technology in ceramic drivers I don't actually like the sound of them nearly as much as I do composite fiber drivers.

Hopefully I'll be able to hear them soon.

Best,

But just to bring some here back to reality, there is no such thing as out perform, as that is completely subjective.  There is no 1, 2 or even 100 right answers.  And yet, they could all be right.
I recently bought a pair of YG Sonja 2.2 and the other contender was Magico M2. ( there are many other fantastic speakers but I wanted horns or sealed speakers for my room)
I listened to them multiple times but with different upstream gears ( same level) and in different rooms so the comparison was not a direct one. Both are excellent speakers with a lot in common but still different.
For my taste, Sonja 2.2 was a better match. The midrange and high frequency sounded more natural to me . Bass-wise, resolution Magico was ahead . Bass is a relative “weak” point on YG speakers ( very fast and natural but lack a bit of punch) 
Since, I got an excellent opportunity on REL 212se sub and bass is extraordinary.The integration with YG is excellent.
( might be as well with Magico but never tried)
