So is it solid or a honeycomb?  Those are different things.

 From what I understand it is a solid honeycomb and film combo.

I've heard Magico sound ok but honestly it means nothing to me. I have yet to hear cone technologies surpass things of the past.

I'm confused.  The nature of a honeycomb is that it is mostly empty space divided into hexagonal chambers.

Often Nomex is used as the honeycomb material due to its natural damping characteristics.  Carbon fiber ply/honeycomb/carbon fiber.

Think race car chassis and space craft.

Got it.  Just the term "solid" threw me. The big thing about honeycombs is that they're not solid.  Honeycombs and carbon should be strong for sure.  An improvement?  Maybe.  I remember Audax Aerogel was the new miracle cone material-- and it was for mids, not so much for lows.

   Poor choice of of words sorry. Hemp is a VG material as well. Folsom you need to hear the Magico two way with VAC or CRJ or Audio Hungary. You may just change your mind. I find vintage sounding colored and inaccurate. A nice cozy sound but bot real Hi Fi. To each their own.
