Magico A1? - bernardl - 04-Jul-2020 Hi team, Does someone have experience driving Magico A1’s with pre-CI Devialet D250? Also, how well does the Sam profile work for those? I hear very different stories about the A1, from flat/cold/boring/univolving to best bookshelf speaker ever designed and I suspect that amplification is the key. How good a match is the Devialet? Thank you.

Absolutely astonishing- I had a decent pair of speakers before (Albedo Aptica) - there is no comparison. I think the power of whatever Devialet Expert you have will drive the Magico A1’s. The reviews of the A1’s and 3’s are sympathetic - less bass obviously, but musically sound. I think you need Apods or IsoAcoustic Gaia feet - the Gaia’s made a significant improvement (and much less expensive than the Apods) RE: Magico A1? - mdconnelly - 12-Jul-2020 @Lincolnlad - I’ve been toying with the idea of the A3s. The problem is that I don’t think I’d get a chance to hear them with my 440 Pro before buying and the cost of shipping is not trivial. Is there a SAM profile for the A3s and, if so, do you use it? RE: Magico A1? - ogs - 12-Jul-2020 Devialet has SAM profiles for both A1 and A3. I haven't heard any of them (don't even own a Dev now), but I'd be pretty surprised if a 440 CI did not work well with the A3 +SAM. Look forward to @Lincolnlad 's comment on this. |
