Big mistake. Once having listened to the Utopia the Sopra No.2 were "a bit less" than I had hoped for. The Scala were truly outstanding. If the V2 are close to the Evo and you can fit them in your listening space & budget, go for it.

Thank you very much for this. What did you think of the bass reproduction? I assumed that since the Sopras have 2 bass drivers, they would be faster, more articulate than the Scalas. Were the mids and highs better on the Scalas? Different?
Thank you!
