Re: The World's Best Audio System
I would say MBL 101 Xtremes have to be there for "world's best" consideration.

The World's Best Audio System
I would DEFINITELY put the M Pro's in a top list too. Focal Grande Utopia as well. Avantgarde Trio's. I've heard the big Wilson's with the big subs sound great too (RMAF 2014???). The big Kharma speakers. Tidal. Raidho D5's.
But still gotta say "MBL 101 Xtremes". A speaker like no other. Just gotta have the room, budget, amps, etc! Minor details.

Re: The World's Best Audio System
Many still consider the Genesis gen1 as world class , it and it's Infinity version before was always considered Masterclass.

The World's Best Audio System
Chris - the MBL 101 Xtremes to me, are the best I've heard. Why? People lose their freaking minds, like heroin addicts, banging their heads, air drumming, singing at the top of their lungs and just simply transformed to another place and time. NEVER saw anything close to that with any other speaker. They are so real, they totally mess with your mind - but in a great way!

He actually made a great point about pricing in that article.
The MBLs are amazing. Also really like Magico as well.

Re: The World's Best Audio System
Hi no, Ron heard them at Audiocrack's. I am still scheduled to go there when his 4 quality TTs are in operation (Da Vinci Gabriel, Blue Pearl JEM, Forsell Reference, and one more I cannot recall). My top pic is Apogee Grands, modded, followed by Western Electrics (Apogee Grands firing down the room and WE 16A on the long wall with a 6w 300b amp). Next up, Trio with bass horns.

Re: The World's Best Audio System
@Don,
I think the same can be said for alot of setups and systems, one man's euphoria is another's anathema and i would agree about show conditions , no excuse for bad sound at that level , worst case "good" sound should be deliverable..
Magico is not alone here thou, i have heard many rated systems , regardless of cost not deliver in many situations, only to later have them deliver in competent hands , a dealer should fit this description, then again very few in my experience are really capable of going beyond printing an Invoice ..
Regardless , Condemnation without investigation is prejudice..

Re: The World's Best Audio System
Wasn't that the point of the article? Luxury audio and good sound aren't necessarily the same.
-
June 5, 2016, 09:27 PM #29
Re: The World's Best Audio System
What is luxury Audio?
Pretty insulting to insinuate people buying bad hi fi just for status, ( I'm sure a few do ) i can see buying out of ignorance , but since poor or rich listen for enjoyment , i doubt the rich audiophile is buying, if it sounds like snop doo doo just for status ..
Personally , with electronics, never seen SOTA electronics sound like Snop Doo doo , speakers , Yeah ! Well some , as there are plenty interpretation as to what constitutes a good speaker vs amps and pre-amps. Speakers are far more reflective of the designer house sound and interpretation than electronics and we select them the same ...
Regards

Re: The World's Best Audio System
hearing is part of our senses system - so there is no "best" by definition.
that's like saying "bordeaux" is the best wine. might be true for you - but that's your personal taste.
same with audio. we all have different experiences, physics, expectations and taste about music and audio.
although you might fight over what is good and bad taste - hihi.hifi:
power: Audioplan Powerstar, Audioplan Finefilter, Audioplan Powerplant, Powercord
tube amp: Jadis DA 50 Signature RC, Line Magnetic 508ia

Re: The World's Best Audio System
anyone else on here Heard the Classic Audio Loudspeakers with Atma-sphere? Field Coil Drivers? iv never been a fan of horn speaker but after hearing this last year my opinions have changed. It was by far the fastest, more dynamic speaker i have heard. The speed of Electrostatic speakers but with the bass of cone drivers. The transparency and the emotional engagement was something that drew me in. 75 grand retail but they seem to be very unique design.

You should take a trip to NYC and let Bob have you audition a Mk2 Goldmund Apologuesetup...
or take a trip to the NLs and hear Audiocrack's Tidal Lassoluta setup ..driven by Kondo and fed by a GG Dac and Komputer. His cables alone are ridiculous and the Trident grounding as well.
On another note, ever heard Verictum power cables? I just got a tip that they cost the same as a Big7 and B7 guys in the UK are buying them!NORMAN

Re: The World's Best Audio System
Right on, Don. I too have tried really hard to get into a system comprised of Magico Q7s driven by massive Soulution amps. I really wanted to BELIEVE. But it was not to be. It was pretty uninvolving, just as you say, despite multiple re-adjustments over several days. Blah. Lacking in "soul" despite the amp's pretentions. I think too many audiophiles fall into the trap of believing that newer and more expensive guarantees better. Like wide-eyed kids imagining how cool it would be to drive a Corvette, imaginations can exceed the reality.
Me? Compared to Magico and Soulution, I hear far, far more musical magic from big Apogee ribbons speakers driven by very large Audio Research tube amps, with vinyl courtesy of Micro Seiki, all of these from the eighties. Sadly, we have NOT made much progress in our attempts at the best of the best in the past few decades. Despite being in what you might consider your "rich" category, I find that I am not able to write a check for anything better in 2018.
