Magico A5, Wilson SabrinaX, or PS Audio FR30?


Powered by a McIntosh MA12000 in a 14’ (width) x 30’ (depth) x 10.5’ (height) room with concrete floors. Listening is 50% jazz, 10% classical, 25% rock/alt, 15% electronic. Sources are a Dr. Feickert Blackbird/Soundsmith Hyperion analog and Innuos Statement digital.  Ideally, I'd like to eliminate the need for dual subwoofers.

Lol, when someone uses the term “blow away” when comparing any two things, I stop reading. This is a lazy and juvenile attempt to say how impressed you are while denigrating simultaneously. Do better.

Thanks all for the feedback.  Much appreciated.  I’ll report back once I have the Magicos and ample listening time.  

Typical responses. None of you have heard the FR30’s but you think the others are much better. If you haven’t heard any piece of equipment somebody is asking about, you shouldn’t give any recommendations.

Just took delivery of the A-5’s.  Still setting up and breaking-in.  First impressions are very positive.  Only time will tell.  I also own Wilson Alexia Series 1.  They are amazing.  Very different design…ported vs sealed.  Creates a very different low end with the pros and cons.  Stay tuned.

The Stenheim Alumine Three is a little over $30k and might be a really good option for you. I liked them a lot when I heard them at a show and I've onlyread good reviews of their speakers.
