Magico A1?

[Lincolnlad]

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.

Regards,


Bernard

A little out of context, but I recently bought a pair of Magico A3’s to go with my Expert Pro 1000.  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)
