Original Owner - 2 1/2 years old. Purchased from authorized Magico dealer. This pair of S5 speakers has remained in position in a dedicated music room (no children, pets, smoke-free, humidity controlled), so other than age they are in mint condition. No flaws, dents, scratches, etc. Original crates, velvet sleeves, driver protectors/packing materials, etc. These are the extra-cost lustrous high gloss automotive finish (titanium). I have them sitting on Stillpoints Ultra 5s with bases (not included; original spikes and cups are included).
In most recent issue of Absolute Sound, these received a Golden Ear award as being the "sweet spot" in Magico's lineup. I had previously auditioned Q5 and Q3 and chose the S5 since it had a more balanced presentation to my ears (center of gravity more in the lower registers). I own a Velodyne DD15+ subwoofer and turned it off once I bought the Magico S5 speakers -- they reach down into the 20hz level in my listening room, with a speed and articulation of panel speakers but the dynamic thrust of the best box speakers. Read Alan Sircom's review in Hi-Fi+ if you want a description of what I appreciate about these speakers. The reviewers I admire the most have positively reviewed and/or actually purchased these speakers for their reference system.
You can find more information online especially from Magico's website. I found these to compete with $50k+ speakers. While more expensive speakers did certain things better, none matched the all around performance and listenability of the S5s. I am downscaling to less expensive speakers that can be moved out of the way so I can make the music room a media room. These are very very heavy speakers. Requires special packing and shipping/freight -- not a FedEx type of delivery.
Buyer to pay any paypal fees (will be added/charged after close of sale) and to pay for appropriate freight.
Local (serious) buyers invited to hear prior to purchase if you live in Portland Oregon area.

This seller is a top notch guy! I vouch for him 100%. If you're in the market for amazing Magico speakers, there is no better person to buy from! Thanks!! I just spent the afternoon listening to them with my new spiral groove 1.2 table - wondering if I am insane for selling them!? |
