{"product_id":"magico-s5-2024-pair","title":"Magico S5 Pair","description":"\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe new S5 loudspeaker continues what began with the S3. Offering an even wider performance envelope, the S5 2024 features numerous cutting-edge advancements in a substantially larger package, while maintaining the elegance the S Series is renowned for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Process\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eA Polytec Laser Vibrometer was leveraged to precisely measure the most minute vibration of the cabinet panels and calculate the sound-pressure levels they generate. This enabled Magico to address them early in the design process, resulting in the desired target: the S5’s cabinet adds no coloration to the sound. The Klippel Near-Field Scanner robot enabled multiple acoustic measurements of the 3D sphere around the S5, which gave a complete view of the on- and off-axis response of the speaker. This data enabled Magico the ability to push ever closer to the theoretical ideal acoustic response of a multi-way loudspeaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTweeter Highlights: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe S5’s tweeter is based on the model used in the M Series. The S5’s 28mm tweeter uses a diamond-coated beryllium diaphragm. A neodymium-based motor system yields the lowest distortion possible today along with even greater power handling than previous S Series speakers. The S5’s high frequencies are chock-full of textural detail and the sonic subtleties Magico is renowned for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMidrange Highlights: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe S5’s midrange is 6” in diameter with a 3” voice coil. A key change from previous Magico S Series speakers is the Nano-Tec Gen 8 cone structure: an aluminum-honeycomb core sandwiched by graphene-reinforced carbon-fiber skins, terminating in  an innovative, long-life foam surround. The cone’s revolutionary core structure allows lower thickness, lighter weight, and more effective damping. This driver features two extra-large neodymium magnets, a full copper cap, and a pure titanium voice coil. The S5’s midrange sets a new benchmark for measured performance in both the frequency and time domains. The result is midrange clarity that will leave you speechless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWoofer Highlights: \u003c\/strong\u003eBass in the S5 is provided by a pair of 10” woofers. Each driver sports a 5” titanium voice coil and a Nano-Tec Gen 8 cone built into a third-generation chassis. This woofer has a huge copper cap and is capable of one half inch of linear movement with the lowest distortion available in a driver of its size. This enables the S5 to provide accurate, undistorted low frequencies while producing high maximum sound-pressure levels. The S5 produces low frequencies with awe-inspiring power and depth, while maintaining fidelity to the source not heard outside of a Magico loudspeaker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSculpted Enclosure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe newly designed curved-and-shaped aluminum cabinet—optimized using simulated 3D modeling to minimize internal resonances—maximizes stiffness while enabling optimal damping strategies. The front baffle is curved for minimal diffraction effects. A Polytec Laser Vibrometer was leveraged to precisely measure the most minute vibration of the cabinet panels and calculate the sound-pressure levels they generate. This enabled Magico to address them early in the design process, resulting in the desired target: the S5’s cabinet adds no coloration to the sound. Notably, the S5’s internal volume was increased by 31% versus the previous version. The larger bass cabinet enables the S5’s low-frequency response to plumb 5Hz lower—to 20Hz—while keeping the same sensitivity (88dB).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe S5 is available in a generous selection of premium finishes: six Softec choices that are rich in color depth, smooth to the touch, and very durable; and six High Gloss finishes that are expertly polished to a lustrous shine with a clear top coat. The three-footer support system uses constrained-layer damping and premium materials for greatly enhanced sonic performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDriver Complement:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1 x 1.1\" (28mm) Diamond Coated Beryllium Dome Tweeter\u003cbr\u003e1 x 6\" (15.24cm) Graphene Nano-Tec Gen 8 Cone Midrange\u003cbr\u003e2 x 10\" (25.4cm) Graphene Nano-Tec Gen 8 Cone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88dB\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4 ohms\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20Hz-50kHz (in-room) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50 watts - 1000 Watts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/strong\u003e48\"H x 19.3\"D x 19\"W\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight: \u003c\/strong\u003e262 lbs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MAGICO","offers":[{"title":"Midnight Black Softec","offer_id":53527205675192,"sku":null,"price":82000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Graphite Grey Softec","offer_id":53527205707960,"sku":null,"price":82000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver Ash Softec","offer_id":53527205740728,"sku":null,"price":82000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Cobalt Blue Softec","offer_id":53527205773496,"sku":null,"price":82000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sienna Bronze Softec","offer_id":53527205806264,"sku":null,"price":82000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Aubergine Softec","offer_id":53527205839032,"sku":null,"price":82000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Piano Black High Gloss","offer_id":53527205871800,"sku":null,"price":91300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Titanium Grey High Gloss","offer_id":53527205904568,"sku":null,"price":91300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pearl White High Gloss","offer_id":53527205937336,"sku":null,"price":91300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Racer Blue High Gloss","offer_id":53527205970104,"sku":null,"price":91300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Corsa Red High Gloss","offer_id":53527206002872,"sku":null,"price":91300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Octane Orange High Gloss","offer_id":53527206035640,"sku":null,"price":91300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0241\/4615\/files\/Destination_HiFi_Magico_S5_Speakers_Sienna_Bronze.jpg?v=1780248229","url":"https:\/\/destinationhifi.com\/products\/magico-s5-2024-pair","provider":"Destination HiFi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
