Focal Scala Utopia vs Wilson Sasha?


Hello,

Just wondering if anyone has directly compared the Focal Scala to the Wilson Sasha? I have recently auditioned the Focal Scala a couple of times and whilst at first I was not quite satisfied , upon a second and more thorough listening I must say, I am seduced. Problem is, I have also loved Wilson speakers but, living in Australia- no one is getting the Sashas for another 2-3 months. Any suggestions?? Do I go with the Scalas now, or wait to audition the Wilson Sashas? Any thoughts would be helpful, thanks.
-Cameron.

The problem is not the speakers, or room acustics. The Problem is the combination of the dealer has set for you.
Avoid all Accuphase setup, plus Chord electronics which is a nice partner for KEF speakers but not for Focal.
Try a solid state like Krell, Ayre, Halcro, Pass. Combine with any universaly accepted a good preamp. For example, Krell will work good with Audio Research Ref preamps. For digital you may depend on dCS as I do.
I would not choose components from same brand, having used all together.

(some people argue that Focal Scala with Naim electronics yields very interesting results sonicaly)
I just sold my Dunlavy SC IV's and ordered the Focal Scalas. Meanwhile, I've borrowed a pair of Ktemas, Franco Serblin's new floorstanders. I miss the big sound of the Dunlavy's. I hope the Scalas don't disappoint. I wanted a speaker with modern driver technology, but so far I kind of miss the big SC IV's. Am I crazy?
