Based on my experience in the "low" budget area the best value for the money in The MIT catalogue is by far the Shotgun S3. I had the S2 and S1 and I don't see that much of a difference. They are better than the S3 but at this point to have a real improvement the next step is to move to the Magnum seres.
The Magnum line has a quite different sound personality compared to the Shotgun. Warmer more articulated and detailed. Really a great product. My experience is limited to the Magnum M2.
Regarding the MA line and in cosideration of it's cost I haven't been terribly impressed by the Shotun MA that still carries the Shotgun personality although on steroids .
I have been really flattered by the Magnum MA.
This one is really terrific.
Basically a top of the line Oracle of the previous seres that has been miniaturized in a smaller network box.
I consider the Shotgun S3 and the Magnum MA followed by the Magnum M2 the best value for the money in the MIT line.
Unfortunately I can't afford the Oracle MA and I have no clue of which kind amazing perfomances is capabable of.
