| David Wilson must be a little annoyed... go to listen to a new pair of Magic S5 or a Gyia before buying the sasha... and yes, at the end it is your decision to stop spinning the hamster wheel! | |
| David Wilson must be a little annoyed... Mike,as I wrote, I have no problem with anybody preferring the Q7 or a MM7, or a big Wilson or Rockport, or a G1.... but what you describe is like the story of a guy entering a BMW car dealer, trying an Audi A1 diesel.... and liking it so much tha... | |
| David Wilson must be a little annoyed... "So now I am married to a very good system, that I learned love and live with. I think it is like this for most of us, at any level of budget for our system."I believe you have the perfect approach: chose something you like, and stop looking aroun... | |
| David Wilson must be a little annoyed... "But to hear someone trade in a Q7 due to the sound of the MM Micro One just blew me away"Seriously... how many people do you believe would buy a 100k+ speaker of brand X after comparing their current superspeaker with the 2k, made in China, entry... | |
| Magico S5 review you were afraid that the S5 is a bit forward and analytical..... in reality they are just transparent: if you mate them with an analytical amp like Spectral, they get analytical. If you mate them with a Gryphon,Vitus, Dartzeel or tubes, they becom... | |
| David Wilson must be a little annoyed... My experience is different. I had a pair of Evolution acoustic MM3 for 5 years, and sold it in September. I have replaced it with two pairs of speakers: one pair of Q1 (already arrived before I sold the MM3) and one pair of Q7 (to arrive at comple... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow I never meant to say there is any issue ;-) | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Prdprez,Nobody argued that there is not strong family sound between Q5 and Q7. I listened to both (to the Q7 only in poor CES conditions) and came up with the conclusions that Q7 sounds even more dynamic, with a broader imaging. Of course, also mo... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Jeff will do an extensive review of the Q7+Gryphon.Since he had the Q3 in his room, I hope we will get a comparison of what the Q7 brings extra. | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Elviukai, sorry, we were posting at same time, my answer was to a different post from somebody who was stating that Magico never claimed a 10dB sensitivity improvementOn drivers sensitivity difference, I never measured any woofer myself, so I shou... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Q5: 86dBQ3: 90dBQ7: 94dBYou are right, 8dB | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow not sure I understand your message. Just go on any speaker driver manufacturer website, you will find a very broad range of sensitivity of drivers from 80 to 98dB...Q5 and Q7 use similar configurations, but different drivers, with different sensit... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow Prdprez, you write "I would gravitate towards Magico as a close second to EA. However, for my expectations, neither are worth owning long term".I would be interested to hear from you what are your preference, and what type of music you listen to (... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow the Q7 have completely different drivers (magnet)than rest of the range. They sound similar to a Q5, but more dynamic.I believe that defining a speaker by the drivers material used is a bit simplistic. The EA sound quite different from a pair of M... | |
| Magico Q7 . . . wow hifimaniac,strange, I have also a pair of evolution acoustics MM3... but I love Magico speakers. Nearly bought a pair before buying my MM3. I heard the Q7 at CES. I will buy a pair (waiting for my dedicated room to be built), and keep the MM3 for ... |
