Vivid kaya 45 or Magico A3

I am looking for a new speaker to replace my 803d3’s. I don’t need the lowest frequencies in my 14 x 19 ft room. And i want a slightly quieter, more honest sound. So, what would be a good replacement?

Can someone tell me about differences in sound?

- vivid kaya 45

- Magico A3

My amps are: pass labs xp12, Bryston 14bsst2

cd: simaudio 650d, Bryston bcd3.

 

thanks in advance!

What specifically does that mean?  What specific improvements are you looking for?

I am guessing that you are looking for a more neutral sound?

Yes, a more neutral sound. That is what I am looking for.

I think the Magico is very neutral.

I find the Vivid warmer.  It is still resolving, but more lower mids and fuller bass.

I prefer the Vivids.

Both are less bright and edgy than the D3's, to me.
