Sloped baffle
>>>In both the Green Mtn Audio speaker specs, now, we are talking flat impedance & phase response. :-) Nothing like that in the Magico S5.Interesting. Any independent measurements you can point us at to verify your claims? The ones we... 
Magico V3 & S3
LOL. Based on your reaction, I bet you never even seen a V3. 
Magico V3 & S3
Picked a Chevy over a Porsche, enjoy! 
Magico V3 & S3
You mean excessive bloated bass, yes, missing for sure…. 
Tidal Piano Cera or Magico S3
No, it just goes to show that some people do not recognized distortion when they hear it.Have a look at their measurement on the German magazine Stereoplay. The distortion measurements at levels above 90 dB were pretty bad, and almost 15 dB (!!) w... 
Tidal Piano Cera or Magico S3
Audiooracle,How exactly will they out preform the Magico? These speakers completely falls apart when played above 90db, have no low bass to speak of, and sound opaque. They do look cool, but that’s about it. Completely different league then an S3 ... 
Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE
Listen to them and then, if you are still not sure, go read JA review of the Churchill... 
Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE
>> Tannoy literature clearly states that the design goal is for a rigid, inert cabinet construction..Well,it does not look like they have managed to achieve this goal... 
Magico S5 vs Tannoy Westminster Royal SE
The S5 are the lowest distortion loudspeakers ever measured by the NRC. In terms of any realistic measures, there is no question that the S5 is a superior speaker then any Tannoy.I bet you that Kiddman never really heard a Magico. And if he did, t... 
Ultimate Classical Speaker. Magico Q5, Rockport...
Kiddman,The Verity are more “more true” than the M-brand?? The Verity measure so poorly that even the politically minded, JA of Stereophile, suggested that “more than usually, a home audition will be essential before a final purchase decision is m... 
Quandry: Used Magico V2 vs. new S1
Guys,Please... Diffractions are caused by corners (which the S5 does not have) not baffle width. In fact the ideal speaker will have an infant baffle... Most, if not all these discrepancies you are describing are due to poor set-ups. These are ext... 
Quandry: Used Magico V2 vs. new S1
Strange comment. I own both speakers, and yes the Q3 are much better, but it is not a night and day comparison. You can clearly hear that these are of-the-same family. Particularly the highs, which have the same amount of sparkle. Sounds to me lik... 
Quandry: Used Magico V2 vs. new S1
I would buy the S1. I just did, after comparing it with quite a few speakers. It is absolutely exquisite. I am a Magico fan but I wanted to have something different for my office system. It simply did not work out. I ended up pretty much where I s... 
Raidho D1 audition
Dracule - I am not interested in sharing opinions, I can assure you that we will not agree on much. I am interested in facts. You already dismissed objectivity and, quite frankly, subjectivity as well (“Who cares what JV says”). So basically, it... 
Raidho D1 audition
Dracule – I have been to Goodwins few times, and just for the record, they do not carry Wilson, nor have I seen any top of the line Avalon there. Again, you should be a bit more factual with your comments. In any case, I have never heard anyone d...
