Magico compared to Tannoy

ebm hit the nail on the head for me. I have a pair of Tannoy drivers, in Tannoy enclosure.. You got to like them. 60 lbs and a pretty small box..
BUT nothing fancy just the coaxial design that last about 100 years per driver..

Magico -------------------------------------------------->>>>>>> way ahead in tech

So You know it was the 1990 before the Brits knew what BASS was..
Their speakers reflect just that..

You question is pretty generalized, so it's had to state anything definitive. But if I had to make general statements the Tannoy is a classic sounding product and Magicos are state of the cone speaker art. Go to Upscale Audio and watch a couple of Kevin's videos about Tannoy, he tells it straight.  

I own Magico A3s which are 88dB 4ohm towers. I understand that Tannoys are much more efficient. These like Zu Audio and Klipsch Heritage series would work well and even better with low power class amps like First Watt. However, My A3s are driven well by my First Watt SIT-3. 

A better comparison might be Fyne, as that’s where all the Tannoy engineers went to create a much more modern product coaxial driver product.

Magico...  That's top notch stuff.  On YouTube, there is this fella who has a channel called Jay's Audio Lab, and he has a pair of M6s that are super, now that they are fully seasoned.  Look up his channel, and if you are into Gyphon and Pass gear, he features a lot of that upper echelon goodies on there.
