Magico V2 vs. Q1

Charyro, do you mean from a sonic perspective, a profit perspective, or both? I wonder at this point which design has more sold units. There are quite a few Mini 1 and Mini 2 out there. If what you refer to is a sonic improvement, how would you describe the difference? Thanks.

sonic improvement:
- more transparent in particular in medium (probably because of less cabinet resonance)
- smoother tweeter
- more bass extension
- gives more the impression to listen to a "big" speaker. Don't know why: maybe bass extension or maybe because of broader image.
Don't get me wrong, the Mini 2 is great, but when I compared it with Q1 in same room I realized that the improvement with the Q1 is bigger than what I expected

Hi Peter - I have no idea of what Magico's profit margin is for the Q1 over the Mini, but I do know the Q1's cabinet is extremely expensive to manufacture, especially compared to the S5 and the upcoming S1. To me, the Q1s are more coherent and deliver more information at lower levels than the Minis. This may or may not be important to an individual listener, depending on the type of music you listen to and how loud you want to play.

Stereotaipei and Chayro, Thank you for your descriptions. I hope to hear the Q1 at some point. I love the Q3 having heard it at my local dealer, but it may be too big for my room. Perhaps someday Magico will come out with a Q2.

Q3 why is everyone selling them??
