Magico vs the world
@alucard19 I really want to hear some Acoustic zen speakers but worried about lack of support. Robert is really hard to communicate with or get a hold of. 
Magico vs the world
Thanks guys for your thoughts.@mheinze I wish! I've never seen a critical professional review of magico and what I mean by that is a review where they talk about their modern speakers having  an obvious weakness (obviously pro reviewers are not go... 
Spatial Audio open baffle speakers, who has them? Worthwhile change from Maggies?
@uberwaltz and @mrotino  What speakers have you heard in the past, especially boxed/carbinet speakers and how do they compare to the spatials ? 
Tidal vs ATC
Hrm maybe the Tidal is a better choice then since its suited to true listening and not necessarily analysis?Sunray g1 or contriva g1 are both really interesting choices. Either way probably getting a ton of value.@douglas_schroeder  I've read lots... 
Tidal vs ATC
@douglas_schroeder  Did you hear gen1 or 2 ? 
Tidal vs ATC
You know whats on my mind. Tidal Sunray G1... sometimes they have prior gen ones out there for cheap. When I move to my bigger listening space this would be a very compelling option like at a massively reduced price from msrp.@sedgewick7 The sunra...

Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music?
Wow check this out from SVS... they seem to believe in the big subwoofers = potentially more distortion due to lack of control principle. "Acoustically, subwoofers with 15-, 18- and 20-inch drivers are more susceptible to boominess and distortion ...

Kenjit probably some people like a sound signature that is hyper detailed or warm and bloomy not just accurate.  
Tidal vs ATC
Ok thanks guys. Ill just try to find a place to demo ATC.As for Tidal I was thinking of pairing them with tidal electronics or Pass XS line. 
Tidal vs ATC
I should add the future listening space will be 20x30 feet, like having subs for low end duties below 40 hz (big PSA or JTR subs).I listen to acoustic, jazz, classical, celtic, techno mainly. I value a detailed sound with powerful bass and great i... 
Are big subwoofers viable for 2 channel music?
John I like your approach. I infact may go dual RS2s as well. But I might go ported just to maximize the low end extension especially for movies with the captivator 4000. Or sealed S7201 or ported TV42Ipal.But I think im settled on going for big s... 
Y No YG ?
Does YG lack in bass? I notice the 2.2 configs only have 1x 10 inch driver?
