Magico M3 and M6

As good as the M6 is reported to be and its size, is there really room for the product Q7 other than to satisfy rich Asian buyers (read that most of the buyers for the Q7 are from that area of the globe)?.............Never mind, just answered my own question.
 
One can see the Carbon Fibrer material in the pics. Boeing uses CF on the 787 for its strength and less weight. The same why BMW uses it on roofs lower CG of its cars. Why does the M6 weigh so much?
 
Never mind. I just realized that is a M6 next to the Q7.


The M6 appears to be in a Q style cabinet versus the curved carbon fiber type. I wonder if the carbon doesn’t scale well.
 
Anyone know who’s making these diffusers?

Mike (and everyone else of cours)
can you describe the differences between s3mk2 and the M3?
the M3 truly up there and outperform the s3?
im on the fence to get one but the price differences are so high! I’m afraid i will not get that level of preformance vs the S3mk2.

what do you think?
am I talking stupid?
 
So good to see Magico bringing their models out with wheels these days, they change so fast.
:D
 
Haha. I for one encourage it! A bit off topic but I can’t understand why folks get upset with rapid roll out of products. Rapid tech innovation is a good thing and it is a business after all. If one buys a product presumably it is considered better by that person than the competition at that price point. If an upgraded model (am not talking M3 v s3 mk2 here as that is a different product line) is rolled out quickly after, the reference point should still be the competition and not the previous model.
 
My understanding is that Magico will only have the new A3 at Axpona. However, the Chicago area dealer in Palatine, F1 Audio will have the M3s in their showroom from about February 7 through March 1. Peter M. from Magico will (tentatively) give a presentation about the speakers on the evening of March 1.

Sorry, but no! Magico continuously rolls out speakers year after year that smacks of R&D that previous models are prey to. It detracts from the resale value of said speakers & also preys on the market of the audiophile that must have the latest & greatest as of most here, maybe 90%, the rest aren't rich enough anyway, or, are just way plain smarter...., now there's a thought huh, well!! For a speaker company to churn out models faster than car companies.... please.... I'm not dissing Magico for their quality or their authenticity, what I am questioning, is their resolution in character!
 
Kev - I respectfully don’t agree. I’ve looked at the dates, and Magico is at the most extreme examples, on a 5 year cycle. For example, the S5 mk1 was launched in 2011. The S5 mk2 was launched during the last month of 2015 (almost 2016). If you look at the Q3 being replaced by the M3, the cycle is 6 years, almost 7 years, with the Q3 launched in 2010 and the M3 in late 2016.

As one of the biggest high end speaker companies and having visited the factory and seen the sizable team of engineers myself, Magico is not content to rest on their laurels. The M3 for example, is so much more advanced than the Q3, most people swear they aren’t from the same company.

So, it may seem like their product life cycle is much shorter than it really is, because they are constantly driving forward and now have a speaker line up feathering no less than 10 models, across three lines (four if you include the Ultimate).

With the A series now launching, Magico is diving into another market, a much bigger market and this will be exciting to see it develop.

I am not persuaded in the least

Mike is right. Generally a five-year product cycle. That is an acceptable period of time, especially for a company on the cutting edge of research and development.
