In 2004, the MINI placed Magico among some of the most influential loudspeaker manufacturers in the world. Eight years later, the S1 continues this legacy. Featuring a contoured cabinet drawing design cues from the MINI and M6, the S1 utilizes the world's first monocoque 3/8" thick, 12" diameter extruded aluminum loudspeaker enclosure, minimizing diffraction effects, internal resonance, and damping requirements. At 9 inches deep and available in an array of Magico's new M-COAT paint blends, the S1 will fit into almost any listening environment, making it the most versatile and accessible Magico product to date.

The floorstanding, two-way, S1 incorporates an entirely new 7" Magico Nano-Tec Midbass driver with the same beryllium tweeter featured in the S5. The S1's new 7" Midbass dual- neodymium underhung motor system with pure titanium voice coil-former is powerfully efficient and low in distortion.
