The 5th Magico M9(#09,10) is arrived at South Korea.
They are so huge(over 2M!!) and heavy(1000 Pound, 454Kg).
I joined to set to measure because they are not easy to relocation so they had to be set their place at once.

Impression to listen with short time could be described as it was VERY REALISTIC SOUND.
Mid and High can be good at small speakers too, but the midbass to sub-bass is not easy to get realism.
M9's those range was unexperienced sound. Obviously highend.

Edit : Measurement data was excluded at the request of the concerned person.

Might need some subs to help with that dip around 90-100....or start speaker wrestling to new positions :) Would love to see some measurements if you get Magico subs particularly.

It was at 1m to measure on axis response and THD roughly. It’s not listening position.

So what about actual listening position? Just how much did you spend on this stuff?

Should place closer. Wooden floor is the first step to pleasant listening room.

Something to die for, including that room. Objectively, way cheaper speakers can do that with a sub or 2 too and some will say it will sound all the same. LMFAO! If this is high end 'snake oil', give me a truckload, I would happily drink that all up.

Unfortunately that wide SBIR dip around 100 Hz will make the bass sound lifeless....

Nevertheless quite close to my currently preferred target:

EDIT: Removed the image on request from the OP as he got a request from concerned person to delete them.

Eye-Fi gone mad for very wealthy people - and some of you aspire to that? They're not even active? That room decor and treatment would do my head in frankly despite the noises coming from the speakers and the waste of energy in the amp stack 'Audio Shrine' behind?

Oops, not my thread is it? :D I'll get me coat and shut the door quietly as you lot 'escort me from the premises' ;)

Slightly surprised to see the bass roll off, has the room been created within a larger room?

As I said above, It is not listening position. It was 1M from the speaker. I will upload the other data soon.
