My end game speaks.


Hi guys so my system is McIntosh c2700, McIntosh Mc611s, Hi Fi Rose 130, Power Quest 707 all with up graded power cords. My listening room will be 15x35' with concrete floors. I pretty much have it down to two speakers the Focal Mastros and the Magico S7. For music I really listen to everything and do like bottom end and smooth clear highs plus I like it loud. I would love to hear you're guys input and experiences as I really can't hear either speaker.

Thanks Matt

choosing a speaker for 10s of 1000s based on strangers' input seems unusual to me, I would also suggest hearing them first. 

The OP stated that he cannot hear either speaker. He is asking for input from people who love to give advice and hopefully does his own research and then comes to a logical decision. And then he will wonder if he made the right choice and start drinking. I prefer good bourbon.

to answer the question you asked, I would prefer  the magico. Both your choices are obviously excellent, high-quality speakers. It’s very subjective and it’s too bad you can’t hear them for yourself given the investment.
 

As others have said, I think the magico is better balanced, and would not be tiring during a long, listening session. For me, that might not be true of the  focals although the Macs might tone down the high end a bit . 
 

good luck!
