Magico Ultimate Loudspoeakers


Anyone else read Robert Harley's Cutting Edge Article in this months TAS? Is that were we all would head after winning the Powerball?

Yup. I am tempted to buy one and sell tickets to audiophiles to listen, only 2,290 tickets at a hundred a pop would pay for these babies. Of course have to hit the lottery for another half mill to do the room and associated equipment.
Don't know how this mega system would sound to my ears, but boy I sure would kill to hear it based on the eloquent way R. Harley describes it! The attention to every single detail, right down to the "Toshiba industrial-strength uninterruptable power supply..." and "AC power system built into a walk-in-closet-sized room lined with RF shielding..." etc., had me salivating like a donut-eating Homer Simpson reading a Playboy.
Hooper, In a post of yours back in August, you spoke favorably of the Kharma 3.2s (I own a pair). Thanks in advance for any comments you might offer on the the Kharmas vs. the Magicos.
I've heard the Magicos and like them. It would be interesting to compare them against others such as the Acapella La Musikas and the Audiomachina Ultimate Monitors.
I read it. I just got a chance to hear the 20k Magico Minis last month, and I can't say I was bowled over--especially for the price. If the Ultimate has the same house sound, I'd opt for something else. Not that I'd be able to afford it anyway, but that's just a trivial point. :)
