New floor stand speakers


Hi. I am in the market for new floor stand speakers.

My local shop proposed the following: Crystal Minimissimo, Magico S1.5, or Wilson Sabrina.

I would drive the speakers with AR amps (ref 3+225).

My music tastes are wide (acoustic, jazz, soul, rock, classic) but I am looking for some impact. Also, I might want to connect my TV system as well.

Any thoughts on these speakers or possible alternatives? Thank you in advance

I have been enjoying my new Focal Sopra No2's for about 10 weeks now, very detailed, very musical.
I auditioned the Magico's and Wilson's before selecting the Focal's.
Before auditioning the Magico's the salesman asked me if I prefer "analytic" or "musical" speakers, hadn't thought about it that way, for me "musical" was the choice.
For me both the Magico's and the Wilson's needed to be driven to fairly loud levels to sound their best, and with source that has even the slightest harshness, I tired quickly listening to either of them.
Having said that, I think you have selected some of the best speakers made!  Enjoy your search!
