Magico M2

With the improved woofers and monocoque cabinet construction, I believe the difference will be much less than people expect.

How have the woofers been improved, any details on that?

Apparently the M2’s woofers were redesigned to deliver more bass since there are only two of them. This enables the M2 to deliver nearly as much bass overall as the M3’s. Mike may have some details on the actual changes that were made to achieve this result.

Thanks Ken, I have also heard the M2s do not lack far behind the M3s in terms of bass output, and that definition might even be a tad better.

Mike, any insights into this?

Or the A3 to M2. The form factors are quite similar...

My A3's should arrive in a couple of weeks. The M2's would be akin to 'grail' speakers in theory. The good thing is that the A3's should hold their value (I'm paying the original on-offer price) well enough that trading them will be doable.

Nice! At $9800 they were a STEAL! $12,300 is still a great value for the A3.

Congrats, Mike!

Hope they are easy to break in and you can enjoy them quickly. I look forward to your impressions.

Hey Mike - I know you are still traveling, I can bring those home and break them in for you! ;-)

Nice try, Mike! I don’t know why Magico sent them to you first though as I live half an hour away from them.

Had a great team covering for me!

One thing I might say about the carpentry of the wooden shipping crates. I find it odd that they nail from the thick bracing timbers into the thin ply sheet. Sometimes leaves sharp nail points on the inside of the shipping crate. It seems far more sensible to me to nail from the ply sheet side into the bracing timbers. Then you get the nail head holding it together better, and no sharp points on the inside.
