Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing?
@dayglow I think I am the opposite of obsessed with the price. I am saying it's not about the price...  
Magico speakers too clinical and fatiguing?
@tdudnyk I can hear what you described on my system that cost a 10th of that. It's a myth that you have to spend 50K or 25K on just one component to get all that. But to each their own  
??? How Much Would You Spend ???
In my experience, speakers make the absolute biggest difference in how your system will ultimately sound I guess it depends. I tried a few integrated amps in the last few months with 2 sets of speakers. They sounded profoundly different. I prac...
