Magico M3 Review

[brodricj]

Now that M3 is supplied with the new spiked Mpod, is there any role now for the original Mpod on 3-pt stand? I'm just weighing up the option of buying the optional Mpods for my M3. I can understand Mpods being an upgrade over the original M3 steel spikes, I'm just trying to undertsand what the optional Mpods might bring to the party compared to the new spiked Mpods.

A new power center is also on my radar...Gigawatt, PS Audio P20, Accuphase PS-1230. Not many choices...I’m leaning towards the Accuphase but I’m not a fan of the Accuphase aesthetic.

I just got the Audioquest Niagara 5000 and am very happy with it.

Brodric, I know your waiting on the speaker to break in. I have maybe 400 or so hours on my PAP. Maybe a little more and they are coming into focus and balance better and better every day.

What I wanted to know was, have you pulled the CM out from under any equipment to see if the bass tightens up again.

 

[brodricj]

Not yet....I pulled them out last night but I haven't had a chance to listen without them since then.

I wonder when Magico will offer a color other than black for these? For this price you should be able to get any color in the universe.

CF comes in any color you want, as long as it's black.....
Painting the CF I guess is possible, but the finish looks so elegant it would be a shame to mess with it.
Or, are you suggesting, have a color option for the face plate with black CF side panels?

CF does not have to be black. Wilson Benesch, who is a pioneer in CF usage in speakers design, does offer CF in alt colors like Red and Blue now.

 

[brodricj]

You mean, the resin is pigmented with color, or painted with color?

They look quite good too, especially when certain parts of the speaker trim and grilles are also accented in the same colour as the coloured CF.

Have seen the red CF WB Act One Revolution and probably a silver CF WB Discovery 2.

Silver and Gold CF are available too.

WB’s CF supplier is Hypetex.
