Kharma Midi Grandes vs Eggleston Andra II

Since you're in this price range and you have Atma-Sphere MA-2s, consider the Eidolon speakers. They are driven very well by the MA-2s and the two make a great synergistic combination. (It's the speaker/amp combination I live with.) If you're prepared to work on the rest of your system matching the speed, detail, neutrality and transparency of the MA-2s, then the Eidolons are well worth considering. They will be quicker and more articulate than the Andras, and they will be somewhat more neutral than the Kharmas.

Early music tonight:
Esther Lamandier, "Decameron" Astree AS 56
Martin Best, "The Dante Troubadours" Nimbus 45017
Joculatores Upsalienses, "Early Music a Wik" BIS LP 3

Woops, sorry this last bit got posted to the wrong thread...
