The Sopra no3 is really close to the V2. I "might" even give the edge to the Sopra in the mids and highs, as they are not at all strident. The V2 has much more bass, and control, at least in the system that I heard them in.

The Scala Evo is CRAZY better than both, IMO.

well I odered a new set of Scala V2 and both Sopra 3 and Scalas were voiced with my Naim NAP 500DR at Focal and the price difference for the Evo’s I would of got the Maestro III but no more stock.

That's consistent with every comment I've seen comparing the Scala versus the Sopra. Enjoy.

I'm curious to know in what areas the Scalas are superior to the Sopra 3's. I love my Sopra 3's, but I'm always interested in possible upgrade paths for the future.

the bass for starters very fast tight deep bass, the tweeters are way smoother...more musical they disappear and the fit finish is way better.

It's interesting how some people say Sopra 3 is close to Scala V2 and then others say Scala is clearly superior.

Greekspec, when you say Scala tweeter is smoother, do you mean that it's not so brightness as high frequencies in Sopra 3? Did you have both speakers in your system?
