I have only heard the A3 as opposed to the A5. They sound like Magico but certainly junior in refinement to the S3mk2. I'm not sure what is compelling about the A5, when the Atria was preferred over the S3. My experience with Rockport is that they kind of sound like a better version of Wilsons...big, dynamic and a little forward. Both great brands, so all this talking goes out the window after firsthand experience.
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.
