Magico vs the world

Everywhere I look I only see people (end users and professional reviewers) raving about magico. Build quality, incredible sound, etc... everyone just loves them, especially the modern series, A3, M series, S series (mk2 variant). It is impressive for sure. But I am curious, what speakers have you heard that you compared to magico that you like as much or maybe even better?

Thanks for the comments on the A5.

Would someone like to comment on fullness?  Hear the resonance of the piano and drums?

Happy owner of YG Haileys here.  Very revealing and dynamic, allowing one to freely upgrade every little thing and hear the improvements.  I disagree with negative comments about their bass.  I think it is great for the size of the drivers, and accurate with no port.  I choose to run them (and would on almost all reasonable size floor standers) with a pair of REL Carbon Limited subs.  Best of both worlds.

   magico has their fans and detractors.

 

we have heard them at AXPONA a few times at many rooms.

 

personally, never found the musically engaging.

 

agree with yysantabarbera  kef blades when set up with outstanding electronics are more like 75k loudspeaker's for 30k

KEF and Alta dealers 

 

other loudspeakers to consider Alta Audio Adams at 18k sound way more like 40k loudspeakers.
