Looking for my End Game Speaker
I’m adding another speaker to my audition list; Magico recently announced the new S2 is launching quarter 2 of 2025.  I’m wondering how it compares to the m2. I hope they have it on display at Axpona!

@mbmi Yes!  I’ll be checking out the Borresen room for sure. They are the hot speaker brand currently! Does anyone have much experience with Audio Physic?

@zuesman Yes, I was speaking to the Monitor Audio representative and he mentioned that solid state amplifiers are ideal for their speakers.

@zuesman So I had the chance to attend a mini audio show here at one of my local dealers....and got to listen to the Monitor Audio Hyphn.  It was a fairly crowded room (fairly warm as well)....and upon first listen, I wasn't overly impressed.  The...

@kennyc Do you the know the Gershman 30th anniversary Grand compare to the Vimberg Mino Ds?  I was reading up on the Gershman, and they have that bass trap that would appear to deal with bass in smaller rooms. Very interesting. @steve59 I know th...

@p05129 I wasn’t too concerned about overloading the bass given I already have the A3….and I don’t play my system that loud.  I agree though, the s3 might be too big….which is why I’m also looking at the m2.

@kennyc Gershman is a Canadian company; I have heard of them previously, but have never had a chance to audition them.  I will definitely add them to my Axpona list!  I have read about the speaker...but I think they look a bit odd, especially with...

@zuesman I'll definitely put Monitor Audio on my list!  Thanks!  A local dealer is doing a special listening session with the new Monitor Audio Hyphn later on during the month, so I'll probably drop by if I get a chance to hear them! @laaudionut ...

@kennyc  Thanks for your response!  I think you did really well going with the Vimberg Mino D (that's the Diamond tweeter upgrade correct?); the Vimberg are on my audition list as well.  My big concern is that they are rear vented.  I'm hoping to ...

@sounds_real_audio  Thank you for your recommendation!  My friend in Germany owns Wilson Benesch speakers… Endeavour3… He loves them! They are difficult to find in Canada. I will certainly try to listen to them when I’m at the show in Chicago.

@fastfreight   Thank you for the input… It shows on your profile that you had YG acoustic speakers previously. Were you not happy with them? Do you have the vivid audio speakers close to the wall? I heard the Kaya series at a local dealer… and wa... 
Pro re-design limited edition 3D power cord
@68pete Is this the new Illumination cable...or the Apparition?  I own the new Apparition power cord...and just recently acquired the Illumination RCA cable interconnect.  I love them both....!   Rick Schultz just launched some new waveguide ether... 
Grounding an Integrated Amplifer
@chayro  Well. That seems to make total sense!  Now I feel stupid asking such a newbie question.  So here’s a follow up question:  why aren’t turntable manufacturers making their components with grounded plugs?    
Acora speakers at Axpona
I auditioned the Acora SRC-1 when I was in Saskatoon.  A big shout out to Pulsworks; they are an amazing dealer...probably the best audio showroom setup I've seen in my entire life.  Anyways, David set up the SRC-1 audition with Moon North series ... 
Best One Country System?
Time to update my best System from Canadian companies:   Turntable: Kronos; Amplification/Streamer:  Simaudio Speakers:  Acora Acoustics Cabling:  Rick Schultz Audio This would sound incredible!!!!! :)
