Older Revel vs Newer Magicos


I have an opportunity to get some Revel Studio 2 for about the same price as some used Magico A3’s. I recently heard some Studio 2’s being driven be a 100w Cambridge amp, not sure but, I think it was not an integrated. They sounded pretty special to my old ears. However, I have never heard the Magicos. Has anyone experienced both of these the speakers? And if so, please provide your opinions on them and whether the Studio 2’s should be considered older technology to be avoided.

One reservation I would have with the Revels' is parts support if you ever need a replacement driver in the future.  Those midrange drivers and woofers with the titanium diaphragms are not in production any more, so the supply of replacement drivers will eventually dry up.
