Paper cone drivers/natural materials
 The main drivers in my Sonus Faber are paper cones. They reproduce sound like you would expect a $32K speaker would.  Nonsense. Paper is the cheapest material on earth! For that price, I want solid diamond cones!    
Words of wisdom on choosing a speaker
@vinylfan62 Here’s a thought… most people are not dissatisfied with the speakers they buy. It’s just you. Sometimes people do change speakers. Because it’s fun to experience and experiment with different equipment. It has nothing to do with the... 
The new dynamic in speaker pricing
Look, if anybody wants a million dollar speaker come to me and I'll do you a custom tuned speaker system and charge you a million bucks. Solid concrete no rattling whatsoever, custom crossovers and custom tuned TO YOUR EARS after a thorough audiom... 
The new dynamic in speaker pricing
@barts  But then you would be restricted to musicians that are alive and non studio recordings. Not much fun is it?      
The new dynamic in speaker pricing
If these folks haven’t stolen their earnings, why on earth would folks begrudge what they purchase? If I earned more, I certainly would have a bigger house, better system, better cars, better clothes… and the list goes on and on. I buy what I can... 
The new dynamic in speaker pricing
Of course they are not worth the price they ask for but theres no other way to obtain these speakers so audiophiles will continue to buy them. If one speaker company charges $10k, the next will charge $50k and so on. The prices have continued to r... 
What do you consider the most when choosing a pair of speakers?

Why cant they charge 10,000 dollars? They can charge whatever they like. Its unregulated dont forget! They could do a woofer for a million bucks and most audiophiles would never object. 
Magico Customer service
perhaps you were never answered because they observed your posts here and realized you have nothing important to contribute and really know nothing about speakers and high end audio.  I’m still waiting for you to post pictures of your system so ...

In terms of customer service I have some horrible news for you. Magico did not answer my emails whatsoever. So i have zero respect for magico. Mr Magico if you are reading this i dare you to answer my emails! 
Magico Customer service
A speaker is just a box plus drivers. So why not buy high end drivers, make a solid box and save yourself $50k instead of buying a magico?

When I imagine Kenjit I imagine a large person on a mattress without sheets, with an i-phone 4 with iems, staring at a blank tv screen with its programming service disconnected, typing furiously, elderly mom downstairs screaming to ask him to ta...

They are nothing more than metal cabinets with drivers in 'em as far as i know. Its mostly marketing. You could build a brick enclosure for a fraction of their cost. 
Magico Customer service
Their drivers are not the best. There is no evidence of that.You could use a scanspeak illuminator and get good sound too. There is only so much you can do to improve a driver. What could possibly make a magico driver so much better than the scans...
