Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing?


A while back I was very enthusiastic about these speakers. They look nice and supposedly supposed to sound very nice. I’ve heard them a few times and the level of precision and accuracy is very good. But is there too much science going on to create the speakers that makes them at times a little uncomfortable to listen to for more than a few minutes.

Are modern age speakers going nuts with all the science?

@vuch   +1   To some degree I blame the entire Audio Industry. Merchant's, Print and Youtube media for spewing the outdated concept that Loudspeakers are the most important component in the Audio Chain. This might be the real "Snake Oil" created by the Audio Industry that so many fear!

@grislybutter IMO you're overly obsessed with the cost of components. A HEA system consists of many components including the room. Focus on complete system synergy not just the cost of an individual component. The Magico A5 is potentially one of the best box speakers under $30k if implemented correctly.
