Magico M2 - Stereophile Loudspeaker of the Year 2020
I just received the latest issue of Stereophile, and the Magico M2 is named their loudspeaker of the year for 2020. There's a note that the M2 won by several votes, in particular calling out the incredible imaging that was mentioned in their review from earlier this year.

Awesome! Congrats to the folks at Magico. I can’t say I’m surprised, the M2’s imaging is unmatched.

Re: Magico M2 - Stereophile Loudspeaker of the Year 2020
interesting too that it was a close contest between the 63500dollar m2 vs the 38000dollar wilson sasha daw.
i do know that the 56k alexia2 beats the sasha daw very clearly. would probably have been the more interesting comparison.everest, odin, meitner3, humboldt, heisenberg, sabrinaX

Re: Magico M2 - Stereophile Loudspeaker of the Year 2020
I knew I read it somewhere, and I found it again in the Editors' Choice section now that Stereophile has posted the results on their website (bold added by me for emphasis):
In for a follow-up review, the M2s have been my regular listening companion for months. (I've been in no hurry to get rid of them.) I think they're the first pair of loudspeakers I've had here with no identifiable defect. They do that special trick of reproducing all the highs, fully, but never in a way that draws attention—all the air with none of the fatigue.

I’m interested in a LED for a TT. I desire something small and that will connect to a rack system. I was wondering what kind of TT light(s) you enjoy. Thanks in advance.
