Magico S5 Speaker - owners - heard them!

I’ve owned both speakers at same time for years. Magico is a better speaker but not at everything. Put it this way. I switched to Magico but still kept my Rethm’s and for a long time because I was afraid to sell them because they were amazing. Magico are 280 pounds. No I did not roll them in replace and then remove them put the Rethems in? That’s stupid. I owned them for years - know them inside and out and everything about them.

Thank You for the update on this thread. Good to read that you still enjoy the Magico loudspeakers.  Happy Listening!

Thanks fsmithjack, for the response. When you say Magico is a better speaker, I assume that you are talking about Mk1 not Mk2. Is that so?

Please do give more details about Saadhana (especially Saadhana Vs Magico) since there are only very few articles on this speaker and I have an opportunity to buy it locally ( Rethm shop is just 2 miles from my office !!!! ). 

Another  speaker I like to buy is KEF blade ( any version ). Not sure whether anyone got an opportunity to compare blade against Saadhana or Magico Mk1..

What speakers do you guys like more than s5 mk2 ?

Magico pairs really well with VTL and VAC gear.  A pal of mine as the S5 MKii’s paired with an Odyssey amp.  

When i I get them back from a review, I plan to take a pair of 845 Push Pull monos over to his place to see how they pair.  I am optimistic it will be absolute perfection but won’t know till the fall.
