Magico Ultimate III - $700,000 Speakers

For a pair of Magico Ultimate III, they ask for 700 thousand dollars, and five-way systems with horn design are hidden in aluminum cases with a height of 230 centimeters. They reportedly require 10 amplifiers, and in terms of technical innovation, it is worth noting that a highly sensitive compression driver is located in the throat of each horn.

You could run those with a low powered SET.  16 ohms, 114dB sensitivity...   Someone with 700K+ to spare probably would run them with something much too powerful... and very expensive.

Even if you could afford them, I think that the idea of needing ten amplifiers is a real turn-off. So complex.
