I heard the Q7s at Goodwin's gigantic room. They are (like all Magicos) a completely insane design and I'm glad they're out there, just like I'm glad somebody makes Bugattis. For my final opinion (on the Q7s) please have 6 people squeeze 'em into my listening room (after reinforcing the floor), hook up those large Boulder amps, and leave me alone for a couple of weeks. I mean nobody lives in Goodwin's large room...do they? I'll be waiting RIGHT HERE for that and meanwhile be perfectly happy with my carefully selected, wonderful sounding somewhat less extreme system.
Were those the Q5s? Maybe they were...I'll check...if they were the Q5s, please apply everything I said to the Q5s, and not the Q7s if in fact that's what they were. If they were the Q5s, they were huger than I remembered, and if the Q7s are huger than that than I'm glad I didn't hear them as I doubt I could stand that much hugeness.
So it looks like the Q7 will be perfect in my medium size listening room driven by my 60 watt Jolida tube amp. What a relief...
If I sell everything and get Q7s, it would be just me in a cardboard box under the freeway with my Q7s. Also, regarding the speaker sensitivity issue, there has to be somebody out there who plans to drive Q7s with a hyper expensive "custom made by a little man in the rural mountains of Japan who smelts the metal for the wire for his handwound transformers" tiny triode amps that put out 2 "glorious single ended class A tube" watts. Who is that Q7 owner? I know you're out there....
