Focal Utopia 3 Scala speakers

I am just curious to hear peoples' opinion on these speakers. I am not interested in purchasing them, but lately I have seen quite a few of them sold for less than half the retail price (all in as-new condition). Is there anything wrong with this particular Utopia 3 model or is just a coincidence? The Alto Be models that Scala has replaced was a wonderful speaker.

Wonderful speaker. One of the best you can buy in that price bracket from everything I heard, and I heard a lot. I would say it works best in a small or medium room so it is possible some might be looking for the next model up for increased bottom end for a very large room. It seems way too early for a new model, but I guess that is possible. The Scala is superior to its predecessors by a wide margin.

I listened to the Scala in a very large room and found the bass way too overpowering and muddy, really really sloppy. The mid range was to die for though
