Excellent write-up. As a side note, i read that Magico's reference system is now wired with a full loom of the top tier Synergistic Research.

I'm using Shunyata and love them. Synergistic Research I haven't tried.

A significant price increase goes into effect March 1st. A few examples:

Magico A1 currently $8600. March 1st $9400

Magico A3 currently $13,800. March 1st $15,400

Magico A5 currently $24,800. March 1st $26,800
If this trend continues, Magico may price themselves out of future potential buyers like myself as the A5 is a consideration.

And my Magico M3s are going up 10k, to $94,600.00. But I’d pay $120,000.00 for them - they are that good. And if a M3 Mk II comes out they may be above that …

For the quality of sound they deliver Magicos punch well above their price point. IMO the A5s would be a bargain even at $32-35k. They are exceptional speakers when paired with the right gear ….

I had planned to auditionprices. But the salesperson had a haughty attitude to match the prices.

The S5s in your signature are definitely a step up. But the A3s are excellent. Hope your sale goes quickly.
