    It’s his personal premises.

    The M9 room in the video is not one of their public show rooms which lead me to assume they have rented another space in that building especially for these speakers.

    No, it is not in Causeway Bay. It is in in Central. The owner has a dedicated room in one of the office buildings in Central. It is not Radar’s showroom. It is customer’s Hi-Fi room. I have visited this room before.

    The owner has never settled one speaker for long. He had Rockport Lyra, Steinheim Ultimate, Kharma Veyron, Wilson XVX and many more in this room. Not too sure how long he will keep M9.

    OK, that fits the picture. It's a personal office space in Central. Uber rich Hong Kong guys tend not to live in those buildings.

    I think his home is only 10-15 minutes from this room by car. Not very far away.

    M9 is pocket money in the Hong Kong audiophile stratosphere. I used to work for one of the top 10 richest guys in Hong Kong. His personal fortune was $4 billion USD, although I'm sure that number was under quoted.

    Re: MAGICO M9's

    For some reason this morning I couldn't find the Magico forum, so I posted in the general speaker forum. Maybe it was a glitch with my iPad, or I had not had enough coffee.

    Robert Harley spent 2 days visiting the new Magico showroom to listen to the M9's. When I visited last spring, I was blown away by what I heard, and I felt for sure the M9 reviews would do a much better job describing the sound than I ever could. I just didn't think the damn Covid would mean a quality review would be a year out. Finally, you can read about them below.

    This on the Absolute Sound website: Magico Swings for the Fences: The M9 Loudspeaker - The Absolute Sound

    (pssst... amplification is Pilium, when I was there the source was MSB Select DAC. And when I visited I was in the old soundroom, before the latest remodel.)
