Yes, right now B1s are in a smallish room with moderate treatment. Have tried diffusion and absorption at first and second reflection points. Now have absorption at 1st and diffusion at 2nd.

Give them some brightness and they will sound bright. Drivers' design makes them very linear, perhaps a bit too much to forgive potential issues with your overall system or your room. My best listening of the B1s was with an Avant Garde amplifier and Esoteric K-01 player.

Rockports and Magicos (the S series) both use the very same Scan Speak Be tweeter.

All drivers used by Magico are actually custom designs... this is why they sound better.... and cost more to produce! |

Did you ever take the time to here the Magico S1? The B1 and S1 are on my current short list.

Alas, no. The stars haven't aligned to put me next to a dealer yet and I've been too busy for a dedicated trip. No local dealer. Please post back if you get to make the comparison.
