Luxman M10x vs Constellation Audio Taurus Amp


Hello all! 

 

I'm looking to power Magico S3 mk 2 speakers with one of these amps.  

 

Would one of these offer more of:

 

-Top end extension / airyness

-Fast speed/transient response

-Not dry

-Great soundstage

-Clarity

 

thank you!

I think that’s true about the Magicos- they’re a bit cool on top but very detailed and revealing.  My goal is to add a bit of sparkle and air to the top/treble.  I had B&W 803s before which  were a bit ‘brighter’.  

Ed a fantastic guy and music lover at Audio Ultra carries both Connie and Magico and can at least help you with sonics of that pairing.

No idea about Taurus, but I think the Luxman would be really great. Everyone will jump on me for saying this but I find the Magico’s tonally to be a little cool, but very smooth in the top end. The Luxmans have a wonderful liquid mid to treble range that will complement this feature without dampening it very nicely, but they are fast and extended in the bass as well.
