Jospeh Audio Pearl3 or Rockport Atria


I am looking for compact floorstanders. Recently heard the Rockport Avior ($30,000) at show, and was immensely impressed. They are too big for my room.
I will go hear the Atria ($20,000) which seems attractively priced, relatively of course, and more compact. Wondering if anyone has an opinion about Atria comparing to another similarly sized floorstander, the Joseph Pearl3?

Why not STOP messing with this guys thread. He is just trying to get some info. There is more crap about trolling than people giving help and at this rate people will stop trying to help because of all of this shit they have to read through that has nothing to do with the subject.
Well A/C season is coming to an end so I will soon be auditioning the Rockport Avior, Magico S5 & Q3 in earnest to see what will replace my Verity Sarastro II. I have done a little preliminary listening and really like the Rockport Avior as they seem to move more air than the Magico speakers but need to play more different types of music before making final choice. I have not listened to the Joseph Pearl 3 so have not input for them. The Atria also sounded very good but with my room size and volume I like to listen at the Avior will work better for me I think at this time. Again I have not had the time to listen to any of these speakers enough to make my final decision.
