magico, wilson audio, focal. your opinion pls


Been auditioned many speakers past 12 months, even more for last couple weeks. I have listened to many brands like b&w, focal, paradigm, martin logan, kef, jbl, polk, and more... It comes down to 3 brands and model that I LOVE how it sounds and within my range. Besides focal, I haven't heard wilson audio and magico until 2 weeks ago (maybe they are too highend for me when I started the research).

Wilson Audio dealer claims that its speaker is the King in the ultimate high end speaker market, hands down. What is your opinion?

I have heard good thing about Magico and Focal as well.

I found these deal and what do you think is the best deal for the performance and how well each brand and model will hold their value?

Wilson Audio Sasha 2. Brand New @ $18.000
Focal Mastreo Utopia III. Demo @ $19,000
Magico S5. Demo @ $24,000

Your opinion please?

THey are all good.

The wilson appears to be the best value among the three in this case.

Check out www.ohmspeakers.com. If that's something of interest you might save a lot of money over any of these. The largest Walsh models use 12" main drivers. All have similar sound. Room size is the biggest determining factor for what you need. You might not even need the largest models depending and save even more. Plus I think there is an extended COlumbus Day sale going on currently.
