I received my d100 about 2 weeks ago. Still in the process of fine tuning my system but so far they show lots of promise. Driving them with Luxman L595 integrated.and a Yggdrasil DAC. I’ve owned various Magico’s over the past 5 years so this is a much different presentation. These are virtually impossible to audition in the US but if anyone is interested in hearing them let me know. I’m in the Hilton Head area.

Some of yall are funny as hell. This supposed to be a high end audio forum. All I hear is guys complaining who's wrong who's right. Who's rich or poor depending on what equipment you have. Who's smarter than everyone else. IT'S ABOUT LISTENING ENJOYING A DECENT PIECE OR PIECES OF AUDIO EQUIPMENT. RECOMMENDING A VERY GOOD PRODUCT AT A FANTASTIC PRICE. ETC |
Sorry, not impressed. That is very simple music to reproduce, and in no way shows what purportedly would be the definitive advantages of such a speaker. Any number of speakers can do that, even ones at far less MSRP. Fail. BTW, I have no axe to grind in regard to this speaker. I would assess similarly with any speaker purportedly shown to be superior from such a recording. |

I listened to the link highend666, and seriously, that music sounded like so many speaker demos that I've heard on heard on youtube. Some whiny Asian sounding raga type thing with a metallic tap here and there. They look like a design that I would probably love, but I can't tell by that demo. I almost felt like crying too, but for a different reason. |
This sounds so musically engaging on You Tube that I started Crying.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zoCj2tzDXQs |

Had an amazing pair of speakers. Accordion surround, bottom out every bass kick drum hit. Like a flicking a p icee of cardboard w ur finger. Went with half roll surround, amazing. Never get accordion surrounds again. They are not the same. Had a new pair of cerwin Vega 380 SE. eveey kick drum it was a bad sound, Roll ever since and no issues. |

Accordion style surrounds are a no go for me! Woofer don’t move enough for bass, kick drum, and toms’ Horn loaded HF is a no go for me as well.Love how they say they are not too expensive..? Would love to hear a pair. Those monoblocs’ look bada$$. Nice transformer size! specs seem ok, would love to hear those on the old B&W 800 w the 15” woofer! Still remember those years back, shook my chest jamming to humble pie’s - 30 days in the hole, ac/dc’s powerage & back in black. |
