Post Subject: No Magico medal?Posted by steverino on: 5/29/2014

I didn't see Magico in Breuninger's Winners Circle in the link above. An oversight or an unhealthy bias against Taiko drums??

As for Guy Sergeant's comment about the demo choices, I assume those kind of artificial sounding mixes are done on purpose as are demos with dynamically or frequency limited demo material. My point about the Magico Taiko drums was that they picked the most arcane "realistic' example I'm sure by design so that you couldn't evaluate against a real life model while pretending that they were avoiding artificial mixes. I understand hotel rooms are not great places for sonics but some vendors take more care and get better results than many. Many vendors fear acoustic mix evaluations I'm sure. Or maybe they know that 99% of their customers listen to loud pop/electronica mixes anyway. In which case I'm puzzled why you would need an expensive system.
