Nova Utopia Be $38K - Are they good?

These speakers look nice - are they good speakers? At this price point I would think so. What type of gears should be using with them? With the listed price of $38,000/pair and If you have an opportunity to buy them for around $15k to $20k per pair new/near new would you jump on it an why?

Any comment on the Alto or Diva Utopias? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info sirspeedy; I have seen very little anywhere on the Altos (or the Divas) & I was worried that the lack of discourse on these were a negative sign.
I did hear the Novas at the NY show & thought the bass pounded too much, & I was hoping the smaller ones were more controlled. (It's just my personal preference, but I hate loose or chest-thumping bass, especially when it extends to the upper bass or lower midrange.)
I also assume that the good timbres mean that the vocals were natural without any buzziness or tizz. Thanks again.
