    Mike started a thread What did you expect? in General Audio Discussion
    Why manufacturers continue to entertain working with this guy is beyond me. He trashed NAIM and now he’s trashing McIntosh. This is a guy who dabbles in budget receivers, TV’s and trashing vinyl. Mind boggling. Is HIGH END Home Theater a...

    Mike replied to a thread Magico Pricing in Magico

    Mike replied to a thread Magico Pricing in Magico
    Has anyone for half a second stopped to think of things a different way with respect to the new S3? The reality is, the new S3 is FAR closer to an M3 than it’s predecessor. Diamond coated beryllium tweeter, far heavier speaker with higher grade...

    Mike replied to a thread Magico Pricing in Magico
    Cables I’ll leave alone. But generally, everything is affected by inflation. Everything. The bulk dog food we buy was always $99. For years. It’s now $140. It went $120, $130, $140. Inflation is the biggest middle class tax. Look at the price...

    Hi,
    I hope you don’t mind me contacting you. I have posted a few times on the forum, most recently about changing my ARC Ref40 preamp to the D’Agostino Momentum HD (which I did!). And haven’t looked back.
    I now have a potential opportunity to move from my Magico S7 to the M6. I have heard the M6 but not in my home system. They were amazing though.
    I was wondering if you have anything you can share with your experiences of the M6’s and if you ever heard the S7’s as a comparison.
    Many thanks
    Marc.
    Btw my amps are the M400’s using Transparent cabling throughout. Front end is DCS Vivaldi full stack.
