    Already did. I pick it up from Chicago when we go on a family road trip. I don’t want to chance it with shipping.

    A tourbillon is landing my way so I’ll get to play with it in detail shortly. Hopefully it is as good as they say it is.

    Visit to Chris to See Magico M9 and VYGER and Pilium in Southlake, Texas

    Good Morning Bob! I also understand Alon’s (and your and Peter’s) stance on M9 videos. All I’m saying is that the damage that a video might do for the M9 aura is zero. But that’s my opinion and not of yours or Magico’s. I am saying there’s nothing to worry about with these M9 videos. It...

    Case in point - Livio posts videos of his Sonus Faber Supremas all the time. Off center. Bass anemic. Honestly, no true customer of the speaker cares. It’s all for entertainment and those willing to shell out the mortgage level cash on one, would fly down to talk and meet with the likes of...

    What I don’t understand is what’s the big deal about all this hoopla about an M9 video with off axis sound recording?

    You honestly think that Ron went in to videotape the M9 so that he could promote his Clarysis? A speaker that is not even remotely similar in any respect? That’s a far stretch IMO.

    When I visited Hesse, I put my hands behind my back as well. I’m not talking a second mortgage accidentally.

    Kedar Ron went for 2 hours. You do understand that Ron just covered SWAF and went to visit Todd’s that same week? I went to SWAF for a few hours each day, engineered the Dallas Audiophile Club Dinner and hung out with Ron at a bar after dinner and I was already wiped. Cut the man a break.

    Regardless if you don’t mention Ron’s name specifically - posting about a 15 minute dealer visit in a dealer visit thread with the exact 15 minute that was wrongfully extracted from the post means you were discussing no other person but Ron.

    For such a high end forum, why are we requiring Ron to put a preceding caution that his video will not capture the extent of the sound?
