| Magico - Wide vs. Narrow cracks me up when people obsess over treating first reflection points MANY m-seconds distinct from ear brain confusion point…then ignore that big hard suface baffle…reflector… | |
| Magico - Wide vs. Narrow The big baffle is a two dimensional horn… complete with coloration and distortion… you can test this at home with a square of cardboard, cut a hole and speak thru it w observer or recorder… compare… To the OP the Magico you speak of used renown S... | |
