| Magico A3 Congratulations on your new speakers @danzspkrman. I had a long audiotion of the A3's on the weekend & was very impressed by them. I agree they are one of the best buys in high end speakers <$10k. Enjoy your new toys in good health! 🙂 | |
| Speaker Upgrade Time...Great Experience. Congratulations on your new Focals cbucki!! That sounds like a good deal, and you got top notch customer service which is great to see. With your speakers' excellent Utopia drivers & beryllium tweeter, I can fully appreciate the good sound you... | |
| Accuphase E470 v. Luxman L509x I haven’t directly compared these amps, but I recently a-b compared the following setups in the same room with Harbeth 40th Anniversary speakers; - Luxman M-900u, C-900u, D-06u- Accuphase A-70, C-2850, D-06u Of those combo’s, from my listening not... | |
| CDs Vs LPs Don’t get me wrong @dynaquest4, I prefer cd’s to vinyl for the convenience factor & have invested a lot of money in my player (Vitus SCD-025Mk2). Playing some audiophile cd’s such as those I mentioned earlier, the sound is amazing. That said, ... | |
| Any harm to leaving my SACD player on all the time to toslink input? @Jasonism, In the case of your Esoteric player, because it is a well built solid state player, I wouldn’t see any issue with leaving it on 24/7. Though I’d suggest checking the manual to see if you can switch the display off. You don’t want to hav... | |
| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... @fleschler Perhaps it is time to take your unfortunate acquaintances and soured memories some place else, and allow this thread to get back on track? | |
| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... Fortunately prolonged and repeated efforts by one member to name-drop and passive aggressively belittle the loudspeaker manufacturer that is the subject of this thread do not abrogate the validity of the ears of Magico owners and fans. And there a... | |
| Legacy Focus SE or Magico A3 @jafant It is an very well designed & immaculately built amp with plenty of power on tap. Though personally I think the Audio Analogue Maestro Anniversary is the better looker and equally nicely put together. I haven't listened to the FLS-10 i... | |
| PM'ing other members Good show @uberwaltz! | |
| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... @dimora, those Magico speakers must not have been setup optimally. If I were setting up a room at a show with the A3’s, I would use the Vitus RI-101 integrated, Alluxity Media One, Gold Note Mediterraneo tt w/ B-7 ceramic arm + PH-10 phono stage, ... | |
| PM'ing other members Interesting uberwalz. Firefox is my primary browser, and i'm using Windows 10. I would think though that the Admins should work to resolve the issue with Firefox (which is a popular browser), rather than force members onto alternative browsers jus... | |
| PM'ing other members And while you're at it Admins, I hope you're working to fix the issue of double spacing in posts reverting to single spacing, and even half-filled lines such getting pushed up to the next line, requiring editing. Then you edit your post, hit enter... | |
| CDs Vs LPs I haven’t delved much into vinyl as I don’t have the room for a vinyl rig, or to store vinyl in my current apartment. So instead I invested in a world class cd player (Vitus SCD-025 Mk2) which I placed on Stillpoints Ultra 6 feet + Ultra bases, Ul... | |
| Auditioned Magico A3 - VERY DARK... @jhills, I don’t thing you need to throw $35-$50k worth of amplification at the A3’s to make them sing. However $10k worth of cables given even a simple system is not over the top imho. Re: amplification, I could name three integrated amps which w... | |
| Integrated Amp to match with Magico A3 YW Jake. FYI my S5 Mk2’s also didn’t come with a manual, but I contacted Magico who sent me a PDF copy via email. A bit late to read the instructions re: removing  the speakers from the crates, but  helpful & appreciated none the less. Just em... |
