Big fan of Monitor Audio and an owner of same for many years. Unfortunately, I don't have access to the PL300 II's, so I can't offer any direct opinion on that model. You may want to consider traveling to the nearest dealer in order to audition them, even if that's inconvenient, since (1) it's not an inconsequential investment to purchase them, and (2) you'll likely spend a lot of time listening to them over the coming months/years....it's very difficult to make a judgement without hearing them yourself. But, I became a convert to MA's at some point, and have upgraded within their model lines several times over the years. Best of luck.
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
