Magico S5 Loudspeaker

CES 2012

By John Atkinson • Posted: Jan 20, 2012

While Magico's recent high-performance speakers are notable for their all-aluminum cabinet construction, including the Q5 that was our 2011 "Loudspeaker of the Year," the new S5 ($28,600/pair) uses a more conventional enclosure to bring its price within reach of more than just the 1%. While it still uses a beryllium-dome tweeter, this is not made in house.

S1 standmounted???

Is it possible to imagine a book-shelf or stand-mount version of 'S' family from Magico?

No, sorry. If you can afford $28,600 for a pair of speakers, you are *definitely* in the 1%.

In my opinion, if you spent more than $5000 on your speakers, you are either an obsessed audiophile, or you're in the 1%.
