Maybe looking at the following to replace my Magico S-5 MK 1
There is a Marten dealer in Charlotte, NC.  About 4 hours.  I have been in touch.  He has the Byrd 2 on the floor.

In addition, I added an Allnic L3000 pre to the system for several weeks.It was used and so broken in.  Did not improve the system, but did no harm either.  Sent it back.  I thought a tube pre would soften it just a little or give it some bloom.

Sorry to be so long...I was thinking of a bit softer sounding, not quite so analytical without losing any detail.  Perhaps no BE tweeter?  I do not listen at very high volumes.  I am limited in placement space although a friend came over and we me...

Thanks, but was not looking for opinions on my Magicos.  I was asking about the three speakers posted above.  I know what my Magicos can do, well and not so well. 
Focal Sopra 2 Vs Wilson Sophia 3
Even if the Magicos are driven by high current class a mono blocks, they still won't open up without lots of volume?????  Hmmmmm...

How much do you think the class D lowered the sound quality?  When I had them, they were kind of dry and uninvolving.  Now have class a 200w monos.And, as you know your Hegel punches way above its pay grade on quality!

Thanks for your input.  I listened to Magico S3s yesterday for 3 hours and thought they were very good but haven't gotten to the Sopras. 
Received my Wadia i170 transport today.
We have a 40gig Ipod dock model. I can't seem to get a straight answer from Wadia. Will this model work with the i170? 
Meridian DSP5200 + G91
What about the DSP 3100 with the G91. 4 plus the center channel.
