Great thread. I listened to a pair of Magico M3s and was duly impressed. I'd love to add one of their center channels and see what Trifield could do.

I'm into M for 20+ years. I've disappointed with their being left behind by the new surround processors that handle ATMOS, Auto and DTS-X. Theta Digital has always been a favorite of mine and is made in California where I live. They utilize Dirac which seems to be technologically superior to MRC.

I sure am hoping for some good news on the upgrade front from M this year. I've heard rumblings that CEDIA could have some positive news.
