Magico A3

Thanks so much. Hopefully you will enjoy as well agian soon😎🎼🔊

Thanks @danzspkrman Yes it’s been far too long. I’ll get there 🙂..

Can anyone comment further on the bass performance of this speaker?  Also, my dealer in Atlanta can't seem to get his hands on them.  I guess they're seriously backordered with no shipping date given by Magico(?)

They are very backordered. Bass performance is excellent and what you would expect from a Magico design, but the smaller bass drivers means less total displacement versus an S3 MkII for example.

After hearing them, I stopped caring about integrating them with a subwoofer. In my experience, other speakers that advertise similar degrees of low frequency extension would often still clearly benefit from a subwoofer during typical music playback.

I can't contribute the experience of an A3 owner.  But FWIW from my own audition of the A3 in a dealer's home (purportedly a room that allowed for smooth bass response):  I found the A3 bass to be very deep and not wanting for a subwoofer.  But I also found it a bit bloomy at the very bottom and, though I often sort of dislike the term "pace," it did seem to be a bit lackadaisical in the punch/pace department.  Not a terribly toe-tapping sound vs what I am used to at home (Thiel) and from some other speakers I auditioned.


But...hey...that's just one single long audition.
