New Utopia Speakers with Sopra tech?
Looks like Focal is updating its Utopia line to incorporate Sopra tech advancements (V2?):

I'm talking to myself in here but the literature has been updated as well:

Apparently the Scala EVO and Maestro EVO are shipping beginning in September 2017.
Also, a good excuse for Focal to put some price hikes (20%!) into effect: Scala EVO US$40,000 (EUR32,000) Maestro EVO US$65,000 (EUR52,000) Strangely, no longer a 3 1/2 way speaker, just a regular 3 way speaker even though the MDS system stays for the bottom woofer. No surprise but Scala V2 and Maestro are now discontinued. Last edited by Bar81; 05-19-2017 at 01:59 PM.
