I'm lucky that I have a great dealer(3MA Audio) that I've had a relationship with for several years. I was sent the speakers without an obligation to purchase, based on my relationship with them. I still have my Monitor Audio PL500 speakers, because I didn't want to sell them until I was sure about changing speakers. Now, someone else will be able to enjoy them.
My new speakers
After owning Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers for 10 years, I’ve purchased my last speakers, YG Acoustics Sonja 3.3s. They are definitely different than my Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers. In my opinion, Monitor Audio PL500 II speakers offer a great value and do many things well. BUT, the Sonja 3.3s are clearer, tonality is improved, more dynamic and instruments/singers are more palpable. I’m not suggesting a night and day difference, but easily discernible differences. Unfortunately, Incremental improvements are very expensive in this hobby. I would say that I’m done, but I’m sure I’m going to change my Chord Dave DAC.
