Alectiong,No he changed nothing except speaker placement and acoutic treatment placement. I was very impressed originally and now very surprised by the change. Third time lucky (too) perhaps... 
Focal Scala Utopia vs Wilson Sasha?
How are you guys going with your Scala? I am considering a pair. Would be interested to hear from anyone who has auditioned Scala. Thanks.

Went back for second audition. This time Contriva not as impressive. The stand out vacal in first audition a few weeks ago was gone. Still very enjoyable but not much more special than any other high end pair. Dealer said he had optimized speaker ...

Kclone,Thanks for that useful comment. I listen to jazz too. These days not much different to soft pop. If Piano Classic indeed outshines on pop/rock I would certain have them on short list. Could I ask whether you have done any direct comparison ...

Kclone,Could you elborate how you moved from our prior system (which included Scala?) to Piano? I believe Scala and Piano Classic prices are similar?

This thread sounds like a love fest :)As good as these speakers are (if indeed the case as I have not seen any major reviews), they will be bettered down the line as is always the case just as they are now dethroning some other speakers. Having go... 
Utopia Skala / Alto speakers anyone hear them both
Elviukai, I read another thread where you made reference to Tidal Contriva. How do these speakers compare? Prices are very different of course. But would be interested in your thoughts. 
Utopia Skala / Alto speakers anyone hear them both
Elviukai, thanks, Scala did leave quite an impression. However Scala is just about the limit of my budget! Maestro is best left unheard... :) What amplifier do you think would be needed for Scala? I may not be able to get immediately - allow some ... 
Utopia Skala / Alto speakers anyone hear them both
I heard Diablo and Scala in the same room. I also heard many other speakers during similar time (but different setup) such as Cremona M, Amati, Vienna Kiss, Sophia, etc. Scala was by far the most memorable speakers. I liked Diablo too and thought ...
