Tidal Piano Cera or Magico S3


Since two weeks Iown a pair of pair of Tidal Piano Cera and I really enjoy those speakers. A friend came to listen them and he is liking them too in my system (Linn KDS/1 + darTZeel CTH-8550);
He told me that he is wishing to buy new speakers, at first glance he is thinking to try Magico S3 but he could listen to them only in a few weeks.
It seems that in North America Tidal Piano Cera and Magico S3 are about the same price (here in Europe Magico are much more expensive)
Is someone knowing those two pairs of speakers and help to compare them.
Thank for advices

which is the better speaker model up the magico speaker chain, The q3 or s3 ??, I know the s3 is a wooden cabinet were as the q3 is all Aluminum speaker.
Thankyou Peterayer for your reply, so this is what I may expect, I really do not know about his electronics though, may be inferior?, He has the Rega osiris intergrated amp with the oppo 95 with the full Modwright mods, the out board tube power supply and the player has two 6sn7 tubes sticking out the top, then he has the shunata tron-anaconda speaker cables and interconnects, you may say your honest opinion about this set-up, LOL!, He does not have a computer, go ahead.
Hi, what are your impressions of the sound of the magico q3 speakers?, my friend has a pair that I am helping him prepair to send back to magico to get the right channel speaker's mid-range fixed, so no, I have not listened to these speakers yet, what can I expect?, Thanks-cheers.
My Mistake, Both the q3 and s3 are aluminum speakers, However, looking at their site, It seems like the q3 is the higher end model?, Has any one listened to both models?, If so, what are the sound differences, which model sounds better?
