Macondo is no magic bullet. Sure, Macondo/DSET is put together in a way that it's components need for optimal operation, and when "used as directed" the performance is phenomonal, but it is still prone to room integration and poor setup so will likely not suit show conditions.
All playback systems are "ordinary" until enough effort has been made to integrate them properly to the room and listening conditions, even Macondo. High sensitivity systems with a high ratio of direct to reflected sound are especially sensitive to listening position so will never suit a room full of people who listen critically. Macondo is a very personal playback, best listened in near-field in the 'sweet spot'...sort of like a pair of 2 tonne headphones. |
