Stereophile claims about Magico

Feb 08 issue Stereophile vol 31 no 2 cover claims a New fullrange loudspeaker referance. But its not Magico? So in 2 issues the new fullrange referance has been replaced by a revolution in loudspeaker design;) Whats next? If sp thinks it needs attention getting headlines on front page to sell mags maybe they forget how many mag vendors dont stock sterophile. I cant find it anywhere except borders.

Maybe I am not the only one who feels this way. In Critics corner on audioasylum is a long thread started by a respected audio designer.

Sirspeedy you have the post wrong. Thread is not about performance of magico its about the interview with Alen. Where he said hes the only one advancing loudspeaker design past 15 years and everything hes done is new. When all of its standard design and he insulted so many wonderful loudspeaker designers who actualy did come up with unique designs that advanced loudspeaker art. Plus like you say about you buddy whos scared of purchasing because of what he reads in forums. Well folks will read the Wolf interview and think its true when it a bunch of BS. Sound of magico is not what we are talking about. Just Wolfs large head and how a respected audio mag could print such BS...

Does seem like its the best loudspeaker of the month club. Every month or so a new revolutionary loudspeaker design is reviewed. I feel for the poor soul who buys these loudspeakers based on reviews only to read next month a new favored son is available. Most of the gear Iam interested in never gets tested and if so not by major mags. Very rare they have reviews that realy interest me. I do enjoy phile and other mags but the reviews are not much use system wise to me. But to be fair sure we all could list kit we would like reviewed maybe I should start my own mag and quit complaining about phile;)

The design of Magico does not interest me its very standard in the industry thats what this threads about not magicos sound quality. About claiming a standard design is revolutionary. Plus now carbon nano tubes are suspected in causing cancer like asbestos. Wonder if speakers or other products so equiped will be considered toxic waist in the near future.
