Speed and transparency have never been tauted in the same sentence when describing Mac amps.Colored,slow,tubby,Mac house sound in the midrange yes but speed,lol...cmon!..The Magico dealer I demoed at (who also reps mac) never ever mentioned Mac amps at all as a source for them..Go figure

Mission- read jeff fritzs review of the 452. Not tubby and warm at all. Its all about the new thermal transistors.

I have heard YG Acoustics with Mac Intosh ... a complete disaster !
as Magico has similar characteristics (transparency, high resolution, speed) the combination could be disastrous too

I heard the Magico towers (like $88k) on a full MAC system with 1201 monoblocks.... sounded TERRIBLE. Went in the next room and listened to a MAC system with the big MAC tube amps (2301's ?) on a pair of Sonus Faber Strads (about half the price speakers) - 100% better.

Maybe it's just the high priced speakers that aren't as great as some may think.
