I am not fond of the styling of the Magico S series though, personally, whilst accepting that the acoustic design is probably amongst the best available, tweeter, bass/mid and cabinet are SOTA.
Can you remember which Martin Logans?
I heard some Theos driven by an Od'A and I thought they were dreadful. The bigger models are great, though.
Didn't pay attention, sorry.
I had a fling with panel speakers but eventually concluded that they added too much of the listening room acoustics to the sound field. Mine were Apogee Diva actives which I used for 7 years.
