Everytime I listen to the Mk2 I have been tapping my toes and smiling and will continue to do so for many more years. I cannot justify the price of a well-appointed BMW 5-series for the S5 2024 when...

The dealer also regularly stocked the Q-series and M-series speakers as well. With that said, I have not been to the dealer since 2018 and maybe post-Covid the dealer has decided to cut back on...

Yes I am.

Definitely go with a pair of 7B3 over a bridged pair of 4B3. The cost is exactly the same and the 7B amplifier can deliver 690W continuously into a 2 ohm load. I purchased a pair of 7B3 about six...

I might eventually buy, but not until 2025 and I will need to have a demo before ordering. Unfortunately, my local dealer appears to have no interests in stocking a S5 2024 so potential buyer can...

Now if only our salaries went up by 11% a year we would be all set! In retrospection, I am very glad I purchased my S5 Mk2 when I did because I have decided to continue to listen to them for many...

The S5 2024 being a replacement for the S5 Mk2 and S7 Mk2 is an interesting hypothesis. If Magico does come out with a new version of the S7 I am going to guess a price equal to or more than the M3.

Given the (almost) $30K price increase from the S5 Mk2 to the S5 Mk3, I would NOT consider an upgrade to the Mk4 if and when it comes out. I plan to retire in the next six years so this purchase...

Here is a look inside of a Shunyata power conditioner.

I will let you draw your own conclusions...

I have used two Bryston BIT20 power conditioners for the past six years. They have been absolutely bulletproof and I leave them on 24/7; I only turn them off when I go on vacation and unplug the...

Why did Magico switch to foam surrounds in the latest versions (S3 2023 and S5 2024) of the S-series speakers?

Dear Everyone:

As a Magico S5 Mk2 owner I am considering upgrading to the newer...

Agree. Magico has improved the speaker throughout with next-gen drivers, larger cabinets for improved bass response, and tweaks to the cross-over. However, with that said a MSRP of $75K is...

Hi Mike,

Thank you for the pricing. That is significantly more than I anticipated. I might be listening to my S5 MkII for many many more years....

Looks very good. Only wished they would have listed the MSRP. Do we know when Magic will announce pricing?

Nice. I purchased the S5 Mk2 about six years ago and am intrigued by the Mk3 version. I agree that the price will be between $60-$70K. I have contacted my local dealer to inquire about...

I would also be interested in an updated version of the S5. I have been listening to S5 Mk2, but would be very interested in a version with the upgrades similar to the S3.

Out of my price range, but I would be interested in an updated version of the S5 or S7.

I would personally add Bozak Concert Grands to the list of most iconic loudspeaker of all times.

My Magico S5 MKII took about 300 hours to break in according to my ears and congrats on the A3s. The Bryston 4BSST was the first Bryston amp I purchased over a decade ago. I have since moved onto...

I started with an Audioquest Niagara 5000, but it always had a hum that was clearly audible from 7 ft away. I recently switched to a Torus RM20 / Bryston BIT20 and it is dead silent. Wished I would...

I know this is an old thread, but for anyone that asks I do run a pair of JL Audio F113v2 from 30 Hz down using a 12 dB / octave slope with a pair of Magico S5 MK2 loudspeakers. I find the overall...

Hi Mike,

Thank you for the kind words. I have a question for you. I run a pair of JL Audio F113 subs to X-over at 30 Hz @ 12 dB/octave slope. The Magico S5 MK2 run full-range. The purpose of...

The bass control (and definition) of the S5 MK2 is amazing. What drew me to the S5 MK2 was not just the quantity of bass, but the definition and pitch of the bass. Even in my small room I also use...

Congrats on the new speakers. I purchased a pair of Magico S5 MK2 in January and am consistently amazed at the quality of the sound they produce. Wow! You will enjoy this speaker for many years to...

I'll second that advice. The S5 MKII is an amazing transducer. The best sounding speaker I have had in my home by far and I plan on keeping them for a very very long time.

Best,

John
