JM Labs Beryllium

Have anybody heard of the Alto Utopia Be or Nova Utopia Be? Are they any better than the superseded range of Mezzo Utopia and Utopia speakers?

Any idea whether any of these JM Labs speakers will sound good with Classe CAM-200? Actually I've got B&W CDM 9NT on my mind as they are cheap, but after 2nd thought I might stretch my budget further by getting one of these classy French speakers. The Utopia is definitely out of my budget but I would like to hear some opinions on how do the above speakers compare.

Thank you.

Jazzdude your right about the new Utopias having a much better damped cabinet making it more rigid.
But I disagree with on the Sound of the Older Utopias.
My friend has the JM Lab Mezzo Utopias on a Conrad Johnson 2500A Amp, Krell KBL preamp. These speakers sound so natural and transparent. The Bass is so perfect. There the best speakers I ever heard in my life. I'm curious to hear the new Utopias line. I heard the new Beryllium tweeter takes awhile for it to break in.

Labtec, your right about Cabasse. They make some of the best sounding speakers. The Cabasse Iroise and Pacifica 600 are 2 of my favorite sounding speakers. They sound so articulate. The bass is so amazing
