Tidal have you heard them? Are they your favs?
Ebm, which Magico model you are referring? 
Feedback on new Ayre MX-R Monoblocks
BTW, my precious power amp was Pass X350.5, Pass has better extension and also very neutral tonality, but MX-R is more musical and coherent. MX-R bring me closer to the real world music. Especially when you attend a live concert. 
Feedback on new Ayre MX-R Monoblocks
I have MX-R and KX-R in my system, in the beginning, I felt the difference between KX-R pre and my precious owned Pass XP-20 immediately, but I did not feel the same way to MX-R.But after few hundreds hours of break-in, I realize MX-R is as incred...

Elviukai, you are welcome, to debate Wilson or other speakers, it's like to debate Nikon or Canon camera and lenses. To me, Tidal is like Leica to me, if a guy can't tell the difference in image by his eyes between Leica and others, it is very dif... 
Best Bike to ride before a good listening session
Mitch2, "Like audio, I sometimes think folks (me included) get too wrapped up in the gear and forget that the fun is in the ride (or in listening)", I love what you said...IF XS got the hall of fame award in Bicycle Magazine in "dream bike" catego... 
Tidal speakers... particulary Tidal Sunray
Ozy, I said "exactly like yours....." does that remind you something? BTW, what's your next speaker after Sunray, I am so curious.

Elviukai, yes, Tidal is a very honest instrument to reflect setup. Most of speakers may account for 50 to 70% influence to the sound of a system, Tidal may take less than 20%. I used to own W/P 8, so I know Wilason is also sensitive to setup, but ...

Shsohis, no hype on Tidal, just very real, coherent and musical, if you like hype, try Wilson or something else. I can hear my Tidal for many hours without hint of fatigue.Please bring your most familiar CD for audition, if you could hear the diff... 
Tidal speakers... particulary Tidal Sunray
Ozy, I listened a pair of Sunray in Taiwan, with lpx active crossover, exactly like yours. The owner took it to other audiophile's house for A/B test against Cello Grand Master. Guess what? Most of people like Cello much more than Sunray, especial... 
Thiel CS 3.7 vs Tidal Piano Cera
Zood, I don't think XA30.5 is sufficient for Contriva Diacera, I own SE version.

Aygyro, exactly, Tidal is very neutral, my Ayre KX-R and MX-R should sound like that. 
Top Ten Speakers of All Time?
Tidal Sunray ( never heard T1 yet) 
Tidal have you heard them? Are they your favs?
My friend came to listen my Contriva Diacera SE yesterday, he said your speaker has no silky treble, you may need to use silver cable to improve it.Three hours later, he came back from a live concert, he called me again, he told me my treble is so...

Tbg, good to know, how about the sound from new outlet except 6db louder. 
Tidal Speakers owners
Argyro, you are right. I don't feel my Contriva Diacera SE is difficult to drive as ATC 20SL, I still can listen at low volume, not like ATC, the sound collapsed when play low volume.
