q3 magico

I knew Magico, Tidal, YG (for that matter) would come into a discussion at one time or another, to be expected eventually.

I'd sure hate to be a reviewer in this heat.

I think Jeff Fritz is respected around here. It was a well-written and thoughtful review. I don't understand your point.

I have Q3 now for several weeks. I think the description of Q3's sound in Ultra Audio is very accurate especially regarding absence of distortion/coloration, tranparency and the bass. Never heard any speaker with clean, highly detailed bass like Q3 before except in Q5. I only heard Tidal once but in a rather poorly setup room so it would not be fair to compare. I am not sure if I would stick out my neck and say that it is the best speakers under $50,000 since I have not heard them all under good conditions but of those I heard, I prefer Q3 over the quite a bit more expensive Rockport,Wilson, YG Kipod, and Lumen White speakers for sure.

Suteetat

which amplification are you using for the Q 3 ?

thanks

i heard both the tidal piano and magico Q3 in the munich show for a few days.to me the tidals are overated. like 'ACK' said- another mdf with accuton drivers.there are many companies with the same stuff, what is the big deal? they sounded bright with no soul, and noisy.
the q3 were a better speakers, with more musicallity.
i read mr. fritz's reviews- he likes everything and nothing at the same time.not very reliable reviewer.
some pepole chase the last fashion(tidal?), not the real substance of sound.
