Magico compared to Tannoy

Trying to leave aside partisanship, how would you describe the approach to sound reproduction and sound character (not quality, though it may be hard to avoid)? I understand they are polar opposites but I’m curious how you’d describe.

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.

MG vs. Tesla about captures it.  :) 

Either one could be sublime, or tough to take. Depends upon the skill of the system builder.

I think a big difference is the fact that Magicos are generally more water resistant.

Involving vs sterile is my take. 
Yes I do own the British one.

Full disclosure:
I currently run Rockport Atria II's with D'Agostino Progression Integrated, Chord HMS and Dave.  

I spent several hours listening to Magico A5 and Atria II's in the D'Agostino Progression.   Rockports seemes more involving: Magicos perhaps me focused on detail retrieval.  

Just bought Tannoy Autograph Mini's for a bedroom kit and am enchanted. 

Will listen to GRF'S in a few weeks at a dealer.  Any thoughts with respect to synergy with my current kit?   
Thanks all
