Mágico M6 vs Big Wilson speakers

Waaaait.....

If we are talking Sonus Faber, the Stradivari are the one's to have.

As for 2-way monitors with carefully controlled impedance, the Fritz speakers are a really great speaker.

B&W 800 series Diamonds. Absolutely astonishing how much essential information is imbued into the music via these tweeters.

Did you say ragged, compressed and colored? I think that’s what you meant.

aluminum rings and speakers without ports cannot produce meaningful bass.

Um, no? The Magico's are pretty inert, and sure you can.

I will say that it's not unfair to say the approach to bass is pretty different in the two designs, but that is taste, and room matching, not because of limitations discussed above.

Be aware that the Wilson sound has changed quite a bit in the last several years.

Indeed, that's why I qualified my statement as being about Magico vs. "modern Wilsons."

You are welcome, Carey1110
Please come back and find me, I'm curious what you decide on.

I will give you the areas where I think you’ll notice differences:

Mid to Treble balance.

Treble smoothness and color.

Lower voice, piano ranges. Diana Krall is a good test, even if you aren’t a fan.

Off axis imaging.

Space they need around them. Magicos seem to thrive on having little or no side reflections/interference. WIlson’s seem to be less sensitive, so pay attention to where you plan to place them, and whether the showroom is similar.

I won’t pollute your opinion with mine, as you may like one or the other, but with modern Wilsons and Magico’s this is where I hear most of the differences. Otherwise, I strongly encourage you to audition them at the volume you will actually listen to them. If you like low level listening, spend a lot of time there. If you like concert level, do that.

Best,

E
