Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing?

The problem here is that there are too many poor made records. Clean sounding speakers show the defects in the original record and often make it unlistenable. This is what some refer as "too accurate" or "clinical". The solution is - choose what you play wisely. This will cut off 98% of all records ever made, but remaining 2% will bring real enjoyment.

If you like the artist, you get the record.

Must be tough spinning 3 records from 3 mediocre artists on repeat all year long because it's the only 3 records that sounded stomachable on Alon's aluminum box...?

I wouldn’t call them scientific, but they do have their own sound in my mind. One of the best "scientific" attributes of Magico is the power response. The extremely wide and even dispersion makes these speakers throw an excellent image to a wide listening area.

At the same time, this means they need more room around them. Putting them in a cramped room is an absolute waste of money, IMHO, even for their smallest models.

From a tonal perspective, I find glass smooth but also a little cool on the top and (and I know everyone disagrees) I find them a little chesty. Female voices and piano registers to me have some extra resonance there.

Fatiguing though? Not when driven by excellent tube pres, which is the only way I’ve heard them.

Hey,  aren't you the guy who started an entire thread to announce that you will be gone to preserve your oh so delicate sensibilities until after the election? (a very high and mighty thread it was, if i vaguely recall)  Well, why are you back a month early??????? Bwaaaahaha... The election isn't even over yet dude. What's with this type of flipflopping? You say one thing (in a high and mighty fashion standing up on the pedestal)...and do another? Hey...not looking good

I found the welcome back song fellas and it's a good one.

If a speaker is revealing like that...they will not only showcase the weakness in a bad recording....they will also highlight the weaknesses of your room, including any lack of symmetry or close reflections.  

Magico speakers are looking great but I’ve never been impressed how they sound especially in regards to their price. In last Munchen audio show, Joseph audio listening session was quite more impressive in term of reality and music imersion
