Rockport Atria II or Magico A5

I'm considering a change from my Focal Kanta 3s and will be auditioning Rockport Atria IIs and Magico A5s soon.  I've heard the Rockports and Magico S3 IIs together,  but not the A5s. Rockports more than held their own.   

Looking for opinions as to how either the Atrias or A5s would pair with my D'Agostino Progression Integrated and M Scaler/Dave   

My space is 15x21x14 ft and I stream Roon almost exclusively.   

My musical tastes are varied - classical, opera, jazz/blues, classic rock, indie  

I listen at moderate volumes and value clear separation between voices, but with a "coherent" sound overall if that makes sense.  This is what the Rockports seemed to achieve moreso than the Magico as I recall.  

Thanks and stay safe.

Bob, I auditioned Magico and Rockport speakers, I dont recall which models.

I preferred and purchased Rockport, the Cygnus to be exact.

Take care,
Jose

One thing that is great about this hobby; are the many choices, in speakers or otherwise and all at different price points.  I auditioned Magico and Rockport extensively.  I also auditioned many Wilson models.  The Rockport provide me the sound signature that  I was searching for, and thus, my choice.  No one brand is the end all be all; buy what pleases you and replace as you want, when you want.

Good luck in your search and enjoy in good health,
Jose
