Legacy Focus SE or Magico A3

I am looking to upgrade my current speakers, and am looking at the Legacy Focus SE and the Magico A3 speakers, my amp is an Anthem P2 running through an Anthem MRX 520, my Phono stage is a VPI Prime going to a Parasound JC3+,  I also play CD's through a  Rotel RCD-1572, and I do not stream music. Would either of these speakers be a good match for my current set up or do any of you have any better suggestions for speakers at $10,000.00 or less. My room size is 20' X 32' X 8' tall ceilings.

+1 Joseph Audio.  Some of the best imaging speakers available and well worth seeking out to audition.  In addition to the Profiles you should also audition the Pulsars just for reference if nothing else.  ProAc and Vandersteen also image superbly and would be well worth auditioning given what you're looking for.  Best of luck in your search, and enjoy the journey!

D2girls move on.

We are Anthem dealers as well as Paradigm and Legacy.  We are very qualifed to discuss these matters.

And actually we do not make recommendations based on price but on performance.

If a system is not throwing a big soundstage and is masking clarity that has a lot to do with the quality of the source and ancillory components

The Prestige image very well and are quite clear which points to better preamp and source and possibly cables.

Yeah, running $10,000 speakers through the preamp section of a $1400 AVR, even a good one, will be a huge bottleneck to your sound.

Totally Agree here.
