I don't own the S3/S5 but the older V3's. My preference is as far from the rear wall as required (neutral zone, no extra or less bass)
I have tried the Spectral DMC30 with power amp 260 in my own system, in some ways better then the Accuphase E-600 I am using, but definitly not in soundstage, with the E-600 in the system the soundstage is much wider.
Most Magico's need amplification that can deliver a lot of current, preferbly stable at 2 Ohm or lower. (that's why the E-600 works very well in my medium sized room)
hope this helps
