Maybe he asked the wrong Peter, easy to confuse Mcgrath and Mackay![]()
Hi Adam,
I'm not going to state this is impossible because we happen to have a 6" midrange driver that dam near has the same peak to peak excursion of some of the woofers we use. So that driver could be used in an enclosure sharing airspace with the woofers. So it's not impossible. Would the mids sound as good as a mid in it's own enclosure? Highly unlikely.
ACK is hanging on that bottle of single malt dearly![]()
Yeah, right.
Let me think - who would have a better idea what is inside the speaker: an export manager, who only joined Magico last year and is not even based in California (Peter works remotely out of New York) or the speaker's creator himself ?
Not to mention the fact, that you are most likely even is wrongly quoting Peter Mackay.
Well, if anyone knows his speakers, it is Alon. Anyway, all this talk of S5 v2 has influenced me to take the money I was saving for a Lexus SUV, and order a pair. This is actually better than the car since, with my S5 trade-in, I am saving a ton of money.![]()
Both you and Mr. Alon Wolf can attack all you want, while I continue to stick to the point (midrange cover). But in my eyes, Mr. Alon Wolf's response was really directed at Mr. Mackay, by correcting him and what he told me in a public way. In my eyes again, neither you or Mr. Wolf have any credibility at this point for the way you conduct yourselves, if it wasn't obvious from your earlier attacks. The bottom line is still the same: Magico has no pictures of the alleged midrange enclosure in the S5 Mk I, in the configuration that first went to market. At this point, exactly because your credibility is non-existent with me, I have no reason to believe any further "evidence" or comments.
I've never realised Alon Wolf attacked anyone. He doesn't even follow this discussion (I belive he is at CES right now), not to mention take part in it. I have posted his answer to my email (by his permission), where he only stated the facts. No attacing, no judgeing, apart from the rather obvious suggestion, that you must have had misunderstood Peter.
At this I think it is obvious for anyone, that you are the type of guy, who is just not able to admit he was wrong, and no evidence presented will ever change that.
Even is someone posts a pic to further reinvorce what has been already said in this thread, you will always say that the pic does not show your imagined 'earlier version' or some other BS. Basicly everything, that will help you (in your mind) escape the inevitable truth.
Too bad the only evidence you can provide to back up your story, is your impression of your conversation with Peter Mackey. No data, picture, test results - nothing. Even the basic physics is against you.
I agree with you thought in one thing - it is time to move on. This was my last post in this thread.
Adam, are you a dealer/associate/rep for Magico in Poland? Just curious, LOL.![]()
Congrats, Bud! I'm very happy for you and confident you made the right decision. I have no doubt you are going to love them.
He did not compare, but we can compare his review of the Alexia and the S5 mk2. Just did it and IMHO it is all there. We just have to read and think. Curiously, comparing the Martin Colloms reviews of the Alexia and the old S5 was also very instructive.
+1
Quite an enthusiastic review, I might add:
