I heard the Wilson WAMM's years ago. I never heard a degree of separation of orchestral instruments like I did that day on a DDD recording- nothing special. This was a $95,000 system (4 pieces).
So it "gave me an idea" of what David Wilson was striving for.
So what is Magico doing these days? My guess is moving a LOT of air in this present-stage-of-engineering with the most inert box you can build. I used to admire pictures of the Q7!- so what do I know? Can you put a Very Good Recording on that system and re-create the sound of that concert hall in Vienna? I don't know, but let Magico do what they want to do. Wilson also will continue to upgrade their speakers, as will many manufacturers in Denmark, Holland, France, the U.K., and so on. Who knows but someday China may produce the best hi-fi company in the world. Luckily I can think back and remember the 1st time I heard Watt-Puppies 3/2's completely disappear in the room. Later I didn't buy the speakers, but I bought the CD! It's a fun hobby, so buy what you want "after" you buy the groceries, pay the rent, etc. It took me many years to get the system I presently have, like climbing stairs one step at a time.
