Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing?
A while back I was very enthusiastic about these speakers. They look nice and supposedly supposed to sound very nice. I’ve heard them a few times and the level of precision and accuracy is very good. But is there too much science going on to create the speakers that makes them at times a little uncomfortable to listen to for more than a few minutes.
Are modern age speakers going nuts with all the science?

@vuch +1 To some degree I blame the entire Audio Industry. Merchant's, Print and Youtube media for spewing the outdated concept that Loudspeakers are the most important component in the Audio Chain. This might be the real "Snake Oil" created by the Audio Industry that so many fear! |
well I don't know why people are so enamored with magico I've listened to the many times and I'm not that impressed and you're right they sound very clinical and not natural, I like a speaker that's neutral and sounds like a real performance that's why I like the monitor audio platinum series they're way more three-dimensional airy and spacious b then the magico, The voice piano and symbols sound way more natural and real than through magico. The MPD tweeter is much better than the beryllium tweeter that magico uses. |
I think I read somewhere that Magico had a model where the grills were not including in the price of the speaker and also if the speaker was sent back to them for repair they wouldn’t return them it back to you, they would notify you which dock at their facility to pickup your fixed speaker after paying $12k to replace a driver. That’s kinda comical to me… |
