Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE

They were done by a speaker designer I know...

Who will conduct a worthwhile listening test comparing a “compensated” (eq) signal to a pure one??

BTW, taken from your link:
“Most people that aren't used to "accurate" bass with proper pitch and damping (long time users of vented speakers) should probably use something closer to a static Qtc of .65 or .70 or so”

As Usermanual already pointed out, all things being equal, there are no psychoacoustics reasons to prefer a “compromised” parameter on a “sound” one. However, there may be plenty of psychological reasons to do so.

Jump on the new MAGICO M Project speaker only 50 made at $130k.They may already be sold out anybody on Audiogon order a pair .

No doubt measurements i.e correct--accurate/flat/linear etc frequency balance is all but one essential aspect into reproducing realistically believable sound.
But none on timbre and tonal truth can be gauge by any measuring tools that I know/read of. Instead, human sensory ie. ears/brain/heart are left to do these.
Thus, no matter how advanced and thorough measuring facility an audio establishment embodies, products still have to pass the final ultimate test ~ their designers' ears ~ no?

Two of my absolute favourite speaker brands are Tannoy and ATC. I also like Magico but not as much. It is all about making it sound real and "authentic".
