Persona 9h vs S3 mk 2

It's not that simple. This active bass is driven by a DSP, class D amp, set up. That means that your bass signal is digitized (and it is playing into the midrange, with a delayed signal). It introduces all sort of audible issues. To my ears, brittle, bright, and disjointed presentation. Not in the same league as other $35K contender.

I audition the Wilson Sabrina extensively when searching for new speakers; they made my final list (Here in Germany the same distributor carry Wilson, Paradigm, and Magico). Ultimately I choose the Magico A3, which is a lot more transparent, coherent and extended, but may require a bit of "listening sophistication” to appreciate; it does not “jump” on you like some other brands, and some people just can’t get past that. It is a shame since there is a lot more to music then just a kick in the stomach or shrilling high frequencies.

Sciencecop what is your point here?

audiotroy  It is you who typically jump to any conversation involving Magico, or any other product you don’t sell, and quick to trash it (yea, good speakers but boring, blah blah). When someone puts you on the spot and call out your BS (clearly you don’t even understand the products you sell), you call out foul. Where do you get off? This and many other conversations would have been much more pleasant if you were not part of them. And if you must, you would be much more effective if you don’t mention any products you don’t sell. Try it, it will do us all good.
