Focalfan,
There was a mint pair of latest Focal Grand Utopia EM for sale here couple of weeks ago which I'm sure many noticed. A 180k speaker offered for 50k must be some great speakers? Well if not, at least a great buy. If in my country, at that price, I'd probably give them a go--although doubtful that it would play nice in my smallish room.
As Ojdeteos said, even your today's best will get replaced eventually. I've heard many 100-200k+ speakers, few stood out, but none best, just different--hence choices. Your relentlessly thrashing one brand in particular is just beyond me. Try to enjoy more your wonderful speaker/set-up instead. If the music is serve right, beautiful and engrossing enough, I doubt that you'd have the time to be distraught with other people's choices, like or dislike anymore.
OR, maybe you could even share/post your system here virtually to enlighten/educate us on what constitute/how to properly assemble a truly sota system?
