this is a good link

look out for the forthcoming Q1 2 way small speakers. will suit hk smaller lounge.

recently a lot of audiophiles shift to magico instead of wilson speakers.

no wonder wilson for the sake of change now tune their speakers more mellow as no one would like to play mahler symphonies every night :-)

Let's look at the sexy Q1 first. Will it cost less than HK$200k?

Frankly, I don't find the Q1 looks half as good as the Mini's! In fact, it reminds me of an ordinary bookshelf speaker.

IMO, Sexy is from its good sound, not its outlook. :)

Oh! I see.

How does it compare with Mini II? I'm very contented with the sound of Mini II and totally enchanted by its look.

off topic..a bit

magico having some of the most effective short term selling tactic, listed high, allow those Grey importers to sell at 40% to 50%.. good engineer with good selling tactics .just my personal view..haha

completely selling approaches Vs dartzeel (try so hard to control)


if anyone care about resell value, let's say..in the coming two 2yrs.., better dun touch it, unless u get a very good deal


nice speaker indeed, but that factory was not quite impressed at all

"if anyone care about resell value, let's say..in the coming two 2yrs.., better dun touch it...."

Agreed ! That's why I have no intention to sell it in short term. I also reckon it's crazy money to spend on a mere bookshelf; nonetheless, there are not many substitutions around the corner nor at far distance.

Quoting [#2] from CPU8088

[[[[[[ recently a lot of audiophiles shift to magico instead of wilson speakers.

**************************************************

You comment never ceased to amaze me.

Have you done a statistic and what ground did you base on to say "a lot of audiophiles shift to magico instead of wilson speakers."?? and the association of Mahler music with Wilson speakers??

People purchased Wilson Speakers do not just listen to Mahler Symphonies as the main reason, what you quoted above simply do not make any sense at all. Please based on fact and not assumption in your quotation.

I know one conductor who owned a pair of Wilson speakers as his sound reference, but who cares what he listens to every night? It simply does not make sense that a speaker designer would tune the speaker design with respect to Mahler Symphonies.

It is a pure coincident that I listened to a complete Mahler Symphonies cycle on a pair of Wilson speakers this weekend and this is the first time I ever done that with Wilson speakers and I quite enjoyed it for a change

from jazz and pop music. Magico and Wilson speakers have different sound and depends on which speakers suit your most but I would not say which brand & model are better until I make a decision to make a purchase.

If I have a choice to buy a pair of speakers tomorrow, I will choose Wilson, but I won't do that yet. I am not saying Magico is no good but it happens this weekend I like Wilson better.

**************************************************

May I ask what brand and model loud speakers do you own and use all the time?

I'm using mini2 myself and I'll have to agree with leoking, the mini2 looks a lot more appealing than the q1 in the picture, maybe I will change my mind when I see the real thing.

To go through the entire Mahler Symphony Cycle (CD)takes the entire weekend. May try Wagner's Ring Cycle next.

1) 有無實際統計數字先? 唔通CPU做左代理? 定又係up得就up?

2) 據我所知,有幾位指揮都用Wilson喇叭,包括Edo de Waart, Michael Tilson Thomas, 亦包括男低音Thomas Hampson。我想Wilson喇叭亦並非只是啱播馬勒交響曲(或其他古典音樂),爵士樂及Rock野亦應該是它的強項!!!馬勒交響曲亦可以好soft,好多弱音(Pianissimo)段落,好考喇叭及系统的low-level resolution!!

唔鍾意Wilson無問題,鍾意Magico亦無問題,但別因為喜歡褒獎FOCAL喇叭就將其餘喇叭牌子貶低而捧高某隻牌子,此心態不可取!

"""You comment never ceased to amaze me."""

thats good i look at things from very different angles.

"""Have you done a statistic and what ground did you base on to say "a lot of audiophiles shift to magico instead of wilson speakers."?? and the association of Mahler music with Wilson speakers??"""

thats from an interview of dave wilson he admitted a lot of competitors and also from american audio forums a lot of discussions.

i took mahler music as the wham and bang a lot more than mozart or hayden. u dont get the point.

"""People purchased Wilson Speakers do not just listen to Mahler Symphonies as the main reason, what you quoted above simply do not make any sense at all. Please based on fact and not assumption in your quotation."""

of course they dont just listen to mahler. but when they play other music the deficiencies of wilson speakers will show up. use of 2nd rated focal tweeters is a weak point.

"""I know one conductor who owned a pair of Wilson speakers as his sound reference, but who cares what he listens to every night? It simply does not make sense that a speaker designer would tune the speaker design with respect to Mahler Symphonies."""

well is that conductor can conduct? who is he anyway?


"""It is a pure coincident that I listened to a complete Mahler Symphonies cycle on a pair of Wilson speakers this weekend and this is the first time I ever done that with Wilson speakers and I quite enjoyed it for a change"""

so??? of course u would enjoy otherwise u would switch off the equipment. nothing special about this.

"""from jazz and pop music. Magico and Wilson speakers have different sound and depends on which speakers suit your most but I would not say which brand & model are better until I make a decision to make a purchase."""

it is just u and your ears. not mine.

of course magico and wilson are different. u are preaching to the choir.



"""If I have a choice to buy a pair of speakers tomorrow, I will choose Wilson, but I won't do that yet. I am not saying Magico is no good but it happens this weekend I like Wilson better."""

go ahead. dave wilson needs your investment for his retirement and maintain his ferrari.

btw are u getting the older model of wilson speakers or the new? they have different sonic characteristics.

**************************************************

"""May I ask what brand and model loud speakers do you own and use all the time?"""

what has this got to do with my appreciation of music? equipment is just tool to bring out emotions from music.

if some products are good there will be praises from users. similarly bad products will get adverse opinion from users. that is one of the main advantages of internet forums for potential buyers to assimilate info and research, rather than relying on advertising or reading useless magazine reviews as pseudo advertising.

A designer of loudspeakers uses most kind of recorded music to design speakers, he/she has to base on music. I cannot understand your logic in your comment.

'2nd Rated Focal"??? I didn't know Focal also make 2nd rated Focal speakers as well, are you sure you are not listening to 2nd rated Focal right now and thinking it is 1st rated Focal? Can you provide proof that Focal supplying second rated Focal speakers to Wilson.



<<>>

I thought from other post of yours that you loved Focal, but why 2nd Rate Focal Tweater again.??? Did you get a confirmation that Focal makes 2nd rated Focal for Wilson, you you really expect Focal to get away with it. Any quatative measurements between 1st rated Focal and 2nd rated Focal??



<<>>

Of Course I don't get your point when you specifically mention Mahler in your previous post on this thread (you may have a short memory)and now you said something else -- as per above, I gathered the fact Mahler music has plenty of dynamics and may be this is a good source to show the ability of any speakers (2nd rated Focal included), but I cannot see anything wrong with that.



<<>>

That is why your logic is hard for anyone to understand.


So a lot of information you have gathered came from Forums and not true facts, oops may be distorted facts as well.


<<>>

Do you read other post in this particular thread??? Again are you doubting the ability of this conductor??? Can a conductor who has close to 40 years of conducting experience can conduct??




<<>>

I enjoyed music and happened to be Mahler Symphony Cycle for the weekend playing through a Wilson, I need to evaluate the ability of the speakers before making a decision and not simply read through posting from forums and specifications. I listen to music and music played through a pair of Wilson and certainly never consider whether it is using your so called 2nd rated Focal. On the other hand a 2nd rated Focal (or say cheaper Focal used by Wilson as you said) may in fact make music sound better playing Mahler Symphonies than the 1st rated Focal, again, I have no idea what is 1st and 2nd rated Focal.

I said that before and I say it here again, I have not made up my mind which brand and model of speakers I like better, may be a Magico tomorrow instead of a Wilson, but who knows?

So you should start a new thread with a theme 'Why CPU8088 Hates Wilson speakers', only if you dare to do so.
