Re: A4 or A5?
Looks like the same chassis as A3 but with a third 7" (mid-bass) driver.

Re: A4 or A5?
The obsessive-compulsives are gonna freak out that the bolts for the tweeter are a 30 degree different orientation to the bolts for the bass drivers.

A4 or A5?
So Magico downsize the midrange driver from 6” to 5”, but increase the woofers from 7” to 8-9”?
Is it just me or those woofers look at least 8”?

Re: A4 or A5?
The 5" tweeter measures 31mm on my computer screen. At the same scale the woofers would be 8.5".
I'm guessing this would make the speaker an A6.

Re: A4 or A5?
Have been thinking M2 somewhere down the road but this one could be one hell of a speaker. S7 Lite!

Re: A4 or A5?
If they make it too good it will be cutting into their M2/3 sales. It is a tricky road to navigate.

Re: A4 or A5?
Good on Magico for bringing more models. If this is going to be the A4/5/6 then it will tap a wider customer base.
On the other hand, the model lines are getting even more crowded some of the series even losing significance. I was hoping that Magico look into having the models streamlined but have upgradability similar to YGs. I

I upgraded the power supply on my Gigafoil v4 to a Weiss PSU 102. It’s very nice step up. But with the new model, you’re looking at $2000 before even investing in a SOTA linear power supply.
