| Hyperion 938,Emerald,Aurum Cantus,JM reynaud,Gallo Hi Rcduck, I have had the 938s since 2004 and compared them to the Gallos (Ref 3 assume). I have not heard the others you mention. I much prefer the 938s over the Gallo. The Hyperions are smooth yet detailed, image and staging near the top, midran... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's Sammy you remind of a college professor who held himself above his colleagues and students but was the butt of everyone's jokes. You are full of self congradulatory remarks and snobby lecturing on how one should post an opinion the way you like it... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's Aoliviero, you're welcome. I had no intention really of bringing up the Sason speakers other than what you asked. I, in fact, answered the same way on another thread about speaker comparison and did not reveal my speakers. But Koegz guessed correc... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's Sammy may be this would satisfy you. Magico M5 - extremely detailed (to the point of fatigue to my ears), tremendous bass extension and resolution, pin point imaging and staging, extremely fast but a little hard sounding, no warmth in the midrange... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's "That is admirable, however making the statement that you found a pair of speakers at a fraction of the price of the Magico/Rockports that you prefer and then not naming them seems to _beg the question_... Once asked.. the ready answer appears."Sa... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's Aoliviero, my apologies. I didn't mean to hijack your thread. But Samuel, who chose to judge a speaker by a spec without ever an audition, needs to be corrected. Like I said, I prefer the Rockports over the Magicos any day. But if you like the Mag... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's Your quoting the low end response of the Sasons, which you have never heard, as some great negative? The Magico Mini ($30k) does not have the bass quality of the Sasons. I have extensively listened to both, albeit in multiple separate settings. No... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's "Both the Magico's and Rockports have great musical triggers given the right system. Both lines offer diversity in choice and have survived brutal commercial market tests to become and remain successful at dealers. That's more than can be said for... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's Samuel, I gave my opinion and don't need a lecture from you. If you found my remarks snide and self-congradulating which you seem to be so proficient at, I'm not losing sleep over it. Where did I say this speaker sucked vs another? I liked the Roc... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's koegz, I was not implying you are a fool because you read stereophile or tas. Just that those mags are highly over rated and don't have necessarily have your best interest in mind when they 20 different speakers as best of the best. I used to read... | |
| Rockport's or Magico's I have heard the m6 and rockports at goodwins and also the m5 for 2 hours at another dealer. For my tastes, the rockports are more musical speakers. The magicos are too detailed to the point of listener fatigue that sets in after half hour. What g... | |
| Should I Bi-Wire or Use Jumpers? most will agree biwiring will get you better bass, dynamics, and clarity. I would go biwiring myself. Using multiple spades on top of each other would not be a good idea cause most spades have brass in them which are durable but not the best condu... | |
| has anyone tried PS Audio perfect wave duo I'm not sure if PWT best quality will shine with DACs other than the PWD. I thought the main selling point for the PWT was its mating with the PWD via HDMI I2S connection. A recent review by a British mag showed its SPDIF and USB were inferior to ... | |
| Recommended new speakers for under $500? Yea, the MMGs are on top of my list too. Used to have the MG IIIs back in the 80's. | |
| Recommended new speakers for under $500? Thanks for the suggestions guys. I'll check into them. I'm a sucker for small speakers that can throw a huge soundstage. |
