new Magico speakers the Q5

Who really cares its another OVERPRICED MAGICO!!

HI BVDiman..

sorry my mistake when I said, comparing side by side wiht Magico, Wilson Audio Alex 2.2 and not Maxx 3. I got mixed up with the model names. in local dealers, both of these Magico 6 and Alexdandria 2.2 are almost the same price tag.

hi there, how do they compare with 101e ? I have a fortune in comparing these speakers.

I will say as follows :-

101E's tweeter very open and airy with 360 degrees audition. beautiful and more "grand". 101E is really something I do not throw my credit card, its bass does not extend all to the way or sometimes, little boomy and rolling off. It does not cohere with the mid range or mid-bass and let alone, the bass sounds alone. Sorry to say but hard to find a description.

Magico 6 : tweeter is very open and airy too. I personally do not know where the music comes out when u close your eyes and enjoy. Its bass is a slam, goes all the way and far extending. I never have any boom or resonance in my room.

just my 2 cents

Overall, coherence in Magico 6 is better than 101e, IMO

thanks Kirbyfel

have you heard the 101E with the biggest MBL monos ?

I ask because if they are not perfectly controlled, the bass is very boomy ...

Kirbyfel,

Which Boulder amps did you audition with the MBL 101Es? I find the 101Es require a certain amount of bass control to integrate the woofer with the rest of the speaker. Also, did you audition the 101E positioned out into the room? I find the sonic presentation of the radial speaker to be very natural and immersive as I would if there were musicians in the room.
