Magico A3
I am a fan of A3 too. I'm selling my other gear to finance purchase. Seems the review at Soundstage Ultra mirrors what I heard with a short demo at dealers. The dealer was using Hegel 390. It's weird someone says treble was agressive! I never hear...

I agree Charles! Need to investigate thoroughly as both speakers require different amplification.

Thanks guys! I already had a casual listen to the A3 driven by Hegel 390 streaming Tidal off internal dac. Playing Norah Jones Come Away with Me album. What stood out was how wonderfully coherent the sound was. Slightly warmish with lots of air. G...

Thanks for your feedback David. I will have to to audition in person. My other speaker I am interested in is Magico A3.

SET amplifier recommendation
I agree with others you have wrong speaker for SET! 
YBA PRODUCTS

Harbeth 40.3 XD versus Harbeth 40.2
When I picked my P3ESR from dealer and walked into room where he had the 40.2 I had no idea how big those boxes were. You can't tell from photos. They look like wine fridges πŸ™Š 
What speaker – under $10k – has the best timbre and tonal qualities?
Harbeth, Audio Note & Spendor! BTW the only Stats I heard that can do tone and timber really well was Quad ESL-57!πŸ˜ƒ 
Why is there no love for Prima Luna?
Audiomerk that something lacking is tube warmth!πŸ˜ƒ 
Looking for Speaker Thoughts
I just got Harbeth P3ESR complete speaker for nearfield or desktop environment. Caveat never heard the new XDs. Original P3ESR are scarce unless you go used.
