q3 magico

not all Tidal owners are happy. It is only better manners that some people have over others that prevents them for gushing out and ruining others parties//////////

disclaimer I have never heard any of tidal speakers(yet), nor i have any other comercial interest, but i have more than 3 "ex-tidal"owners history- the description of exact sonic flaws and final moovement to very strange "upgrade" speaekers (all very diferent) tells me that the somewhere outside theese forums discusions lies the truth.

Don't know if the response from Peterayer was for me, but my "point" was I wouldn't like being a reviewer in such a "touchy" area as this, it had nothing to do with Jeff Fritz being well respected or thoughtful.

You can easily see how half these threads on A-gon end up in the UFC cage, esp. when you enter this super hi-end foray.

I am very interested in any input anyone has on driving the Q3 with low power tube amps? What I heard with the Nagra was rather special, but that was a limited experience...

Heard Q3 with VIVA tube amp and preamp wonderful open speakers still not broken in all the way.They are magical souning Q3 best i have heard i have MAGICO MINI 2 they are still wonderful the Q3 is the best speaker under $50K.

Hi Rx8man,

I meant no offense. These can be "touchy" areas and things often get quite personal. I understand your point but I think these reviewers are well aware of the environment in which their reviews are seen, discussed and often scrutinized. It can get kind of hot. Given the internet and forums such as these, there is now much more back and forth. I find it fun and often quite informative. I would hope that the reviewers enjoy the increased responses that the reviews generate.
