Guys, somehow the dealer could not get magico A3. I am still on square one. S1mk2 is still ok board. My friends were craving about MA PL300ii and psb imagine t3. I am fan of magico. But before I pull trigger on S1mk2, want to make sure I am not ma...

Magico A3 vs Magico S1 MK2
Thanks guys. Just decided to buy Magico A3. Ordered it. Will be coming soon. I know they are not that sensitive: I have Naim Unity Nova. I am hopeful this will be sufficient. I had listened A3 with Esoteric f-05 and Lumin S1: Sounded amazing. What... 
Magico A3 vs Magico S1 MK2
I appreciate all input. The reason I am intrigued is because s1 mk2 is priced 18k and a3 12k. My dealer is giving a better deal on s1mk2 (less than a3). 
Which one? Paradigm persona 3f, Revel Studio2, Audiosolution Figaro L, Goldenear reference
Alright, here is my final decision: After auditioning the speakers, I have made final decision and have pulled the trigger: ..... AUDIOSOLUTIONS Figaro L.It is not like a winner by any means, because all the speakers I auditioned were excellent wi...

Thanks so much.I will try aerial acoustics 6t, if I can find a dealer near me. I want to hear Joseph Audio perspective too. My dealer is going to get revel f328be soon and will try that one to get feel of new revel series. As I said, I loved salon...

I agree with Revel f228be. Lots of good reviews on them. The audio dealer did not have them. He is going to get f328be in next week. I am going to listen to them to get an idea. I got find dealers for Meridian audio and vivid Kaya (although looks ...

Ok. I auditioned a lot of speakers today: Spent almost whole day. Even though persona 5f (no 3f to demo) was visually striking, I felt it was too bright for me. Other than that, the mid and bass were tight and good. GE reference were visually not ...

Thanks @cd84 and @gfrazi for that information on dealers for GE. I am going to audition goldenear and paradigm at same place. I definitely understand Triton one.R being less imposing space wise. GE reference is as tall as my wife ;)I listened to f...

Appreciate all the inputs. Very good points. I am definitely going to audition 3f. It looks stunning on pictures. Revel beryllium speakers (f228be) also has very good reviews. I had heard F206 in past and was really impressed. Am sure f228be will ...

The figaro XL is the very big one (too big..). Figaro L is same size as M: Figaro L has exceptional sound stage and bass. Just addictive. I auditioned at 3mA audio there. I was so close to write check.I have 702 s2: During that audition, I felt 80...

I have heard that paradigm personas are harsh and bright from many people. Some even complain of feeling like a tinnitus. But I love their looks and has a very good WAF. Have lot of expectations from revels and goldenear reference. Will update you...

Like to have good sound stage, image and depth. I am not very critical about being neutral. Some brightness is good in highs. Most importantly, my wife should be in agreement with looks.
