Magico compared to Tannoy

Hi cantorgale,
Are you a cantor? Starting my career also as an opera singer, I considered becoming a cantor.
Glad you got the Rockports. At least at shows, Rockports were always the best big speakers. Super real sounding.

In case you don't read German, here is an English translation:

A Star is Born. "...so close to perfection like no passive speaker in stereoplay before."

I own 2 pairs of Tannoy dual concentric for 40 years...

They are very musical...

They will outshine almost anything in a controlled acoustical environment.... They NEED it....

Their price is not at all on the level of Magico....

I heard them on youtube and i suspect they are fatiguing, musical sound is NOT a sum of details so exact thy are, it is an integration of the parts in a meaningful whole not a dissection...I dont want details if i listen something all day long i want music...

I think the Tannoy are more akin to a musical instrument than to a microscope...Try listen 5 hours of harpsichord on magico before buying them at this price....


i own this complete Bach recording.... The recording is very good and the harpsichord sound is the most surprizing and rich one i ever listen to....Easy to listen without end....Then if you can enjoy 5 hours without headache on the Magico buy them....

Different people, different needs....

You can get the Magico and put cotton balls in your ears. It will be the equivalent of listening to the Tannoy.
Once in a while, if you feel like hearing what’s on the recording, you have the option of taking the cotton balls out 😉
