Moreno, go to S5..
with the 200 the sound in excellent and of course with 400 everything improves.
It was my doubt before to buy the Bowers Wilkins 802D3.
Magico S1 vs 802D3.. 802D3 of course, at least for me.
The S5 is superior segment and the cost is very different.
The next step for me is S5 but I knew the price (High Fidelity exhibition in Milan last week) for the MKII.. Crazy..
I don't know.
Anyway top speaker and if there is the good price take the S5

Hello,
search a S5 mk1 "demo".....with 20-25k MAX yo go have a great speaker.
the S5mk2 is 57k....(or so it's!!!)
the S1 / S1 mk2 sound very good too. with a room from 30m2 you can have a big surprise.
I use the Wilson Sasha2: 1,5 year "old".....I can realize not more from 19k!!!!! not enoghut for a S1mk2!!! it's crazy.....
A S3 (n 2017 come the S3mk2 ...but new price...) can be a solution....I prefer to go with aS5 demo for ca. 20-25k.Max.....
other speakers? Isophon Berlina rc7mk2 or Focal Scala v2.....(Sopra i have recieved not "great feedback. , never listen..)
greetings from Switzerland

Just to throw a hand grenade in here, if you think the S5's are good with a D400 you should try them with a D800. The difference is not subtle in any shape or form.

How big is Your room? What is the minimum size of room for S5 in Your opinion?
Regards
My room is about 4.5 x 4.8 metres with suspended wooden floors and solid walls and they work fine here. Most people thought they would be to heavy in the bass but it is so controlled it never gets out of hand.
