Monitor Audio Platinum or Magico A3


I am looking to upgrade my Triangle Cellos.  My shortlist was  Magico A3, Triton Reference, Monitor PL300 II, I Magico S3 II, Dynaudio Contour 60,  Spendor D9, Canton K3, Focal Sopra.  (I have not auditioned the MA Platinum or the Dynaudio).

My shortlist now is: Monitor Audio Platinum II and Magico A3.  The Monitor Audio was a Stereophile Product of the year in 2017.  I listen to most music types  except Jazz and Country & Western.  

I would be interested to hear experiences about any of the speakers.  I have, as mentioned, auditioned but have not heard them in my own home.   TIA

First thing first, you lost your argument When you judge how speaker sound to how it looks like or material that has been made of.

first of all there is no such thing as plastic sound, we are not talking about hardened pasta or spaghetti,
2nd the build quality of Monitor audio platinum is second to none, they’re built exactly the way B&W 800 series built, I own platinum II 300 and B&W 800 I love them both, the platinum sound stage is incredible even their silver series sound stage is untouchable let a lone -the platinum, as for magico they built speaker that looks like art furniture thrown into so many aluminum inside cage, still all that doesn’t make it sound any better the bronze series of Monitor audio which cost 99% less what is magico selling for their cheapest speakers
