Magico Mini II vs. Magico V2 comparison


Hello,

I am looking for new speakers for my system.

After auditioning many famous brands I found the Magico V2 to be simply outstanding in my system. This is the best speaker I have tried in my own listening room. The second speaker I was comparably impressed were old Guarneri Hommages. Other speakers I have tried did not impressed me or simply played bad.

The room is 20’ long and 13’ width. The amplifier is 60W Jadis JA-80.

For my room I prefer monitor speakers than floorstanding. Doeas anybody compared directly side by side Magico V2 and Magico Mini II? I am especially interested in bass preformane. Is Mini II has less bass than V2 it will not suits my taste. The bass of the V2 is just enough for my room.

If somebody compared new Sonus Faber Guarneri Memento with Magico Mini II I will be also grateful for opinion.

Why does every Magico thread end in a distaster. The brand seems to really polarize people. Dhaan, there are many legit reasons to criticize Dave_B, but putting him down because his system is not expensive enough is hitting 'below-the-belt'.

Magico has really pushed the envelope on speaker pricing, and perhaps that is where the animosity arises. I have pricey equipment, but I can see the value in everything I purchase. I personally do not see the value in Magico, but others may not see the value in what I purchase.

Another silly assertion is that people with some money can just throw their money around indiscriminately. Most people with money work very hard for that money, they spend alot of time researching their purchases, and alot of thought in purchasing things that are worthwhile. I believe alot of people with money are work-aholics, and take little pleasure in things outside of work. If you think there are all of these billionaires who are in their office, smoking cigars and practicing their putts, trying to decide whether to buy another house, boat, plane, or audio system, then you have been reading too much of the New York Times Op-Ed page.
