Tidal vs ATC


Thinking about my end game speaker and seriously considering one from either brand. On the Tidal camp looking at either the Contriva G2 or Agoria and on the ATC camp the SCM150 or SCM300.
Any thoughts on this battle? The tidal I know is a truly amazing speaker. The contriva g2 is the best I've heard and has an amazing finish.  But I see insane praise from ATC for being a very accurate and extremely well made speaker. Only issue is I have no local dealers for ATC in canada. Maybe after the pandemic is over I'll fly to USA to hear them... but honestly even that makes me a bit nervous with all this going on.
Any thoughts?

There's no way to make a good decision without audition, preferably at your place, with your gear.  

There's absolutely no way it would be safe to travel anywhere to audition speakers; not until this pandemic is over, which could be months...

If 300s are realistically in your budget....you should surely be considering the active versions.  

I'm not sure if this whole post is serious or not!
