The Personas and Mcintosh amps are a terrible match. Flat and Uninvolving. A lot of dealers have them matched up together.
I have had friends over that have Martin Logan Clx, Wilson Sophia, Merlin Mxm Black magic and they love the Personas . They absolutely kill the Magico S3 that I had. The cabling made all the difference in the world. Cerious Technologies Matrix is a world class cable that nobody knows about I am in north of Detroit a few miles of anybody would like to hear what a properly synergized pair really sounds like.
The speaker gets great reviews that has a midrange that is up there with the best.
To say you have heard speakers that cost 5% of the cost of the Personas sound better is just plain ignorant.
