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?

In the simplest of ways... everything that has received a similar amount of design and engineering time can compete and potentially “out perform” them.

I, too, have not heard a Magico that I liked... and Ive owned 3 of them. So in my mind and experience, far less expensive speakers out perform Magico.

It was the Aida, I believe with McIntosh stack in the Quintessence Audio room at AXPONA 2019. Pretty doggone good.

MAGICO is not worried as they are one of the best selling speakers on the planet because they don't sound good.(HO HO DUDE!!!)

Dznutz,

if you do not like Magico, why did you buy 3 different pairs?  Are you a mashocist or something?  I would have quit after the first pair.  Money to burn?  I am really interested in knowing why.

Maybe he is related to quiltzig, who also bought a few pairs even though he never liked them.
Two years of posting, never mentioned Magico, lying is harder work than people realize :(
