I have never heard these little babies. I'm sure they're very nice. Aren't they very expensive? Listen to the Revel Performa M20s. They are outstanding. AND inexpensive, by high end standards. I have auditioned many monitor speakers that should be stand mounted. There are quite a few excellent, much more affordable choices than the Utopias. For my money, (and I am going to buy them) it's the M20s. Stands are very important for all these speakers. Go for the gusto with the stands. You'll never regret it. Remember they are an extension of your speaker. The Revel stands suck! I'm getting them from Star Sound Technology. A little pricey for some, but they will be worth it.
