Magico 3
I wonder what constitute as “warmth or lushness from a speaker”. Both these words have a positive connotation to them but yet, I would not want them in my system unless they are embedded in the recording I am listening to. I have heard the V3, and... 
Magico 3
Yep, I am sure, much more satisfying. Like we never heard Lowthers before. Only this time, it is really good... BTW, what a nice thing to say to someone who just ordered a V3 (You got me worried for a second, thank god for Google). 
Magico 3

The best mini monitors you have heard?
“Ringing” is just as bad as “wobbling” which all these soft cones suffers from. The Magico's uses a sandwich cone design that reaps the best of both worlds. Extremely stiff yet well damped for its constrained layer construction and also extremely ... 
The best mini monitors you have heard?
I have recently switched from an Avalon Eidolon to the Magico Mini. I bought the Eidolon over other Acouton Ceramic based systems, which, I eventually got tired of and by now, after switching to the Mini I no longer miss.If the Minis were too aggr...
