    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
    A 10 year average has nothing to do with current realities, or in this case, the past 24 months. The past two years inflation has gone from 1.5% to 8%. The CPI average has risen nearly 13% in the past 2 years. Butter and Eggs have risen 51% and...

    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...

    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...

    Yep, your production 300 Master design is really stunning in black! Have you by chance compared stereo versus mono mode yet? Or stereo bi-amped versus monos? I wonder if it's going to be similar to the 200iQ's story, just scaled up to the 300.

    In the past I've been a big downer on the topic of a single 200iQ stereo, versus a pair in mono. I have to revise that opinion. Since the absolutely stunning Master 300's took over my main system duties, I've been playing the 200iQ's in a second...

    Hello,

    Hope I am replying to the correct person.

    The Mark Levinson speakers were in the shop for short time.

    A friend of mine was trying to sell them for Mark.

    Rumor has it,

    Someone who worked for Metallica had suggested these to one of the band members.
    Nothing ever materialized.



    I just heard someone from the bans is currently interested in the 704's.
