win, win, win. You could do what I do and wait til there's used models on the market and demo a pair as long as you want. Buy all 3 sell all 3 and now that you're confident on the one you like best each company will replace them with new models and you can start all over again.
Magico S5 or Rockport Atria
I have gone through a process to select new speakers. I have come down to the Magico vs Rockport. I do like both of them. My goal is to find a speaker with a high level musicality over all other attributes. My biggest concern with these two speakers is that I end up with listener fatigue after long listening sessions. I really have no way to evaluate this during relatively short auditions. Would love to hear from anyone who has experience with either of these speakers.
(Music I listen to most: rock, jazz and female vocals. Amps Pass Labs XA 60.8, AR Ref 6 Pre, sources vinyl and streaming, largeish listening room).
