I’ve got the focal scal utopia evo I one room running on Monoblock benchmark AHB2 amps. I listen to vinyl with a McIntosh preamp and digital with a Benchmark DAC.
 

 In the room next to it I have Kii three with BXT(these head to the Beach next week).  I’m super happy with both systems.  I honestly do not hear a huge difference. The Focal’s I bought were a demo pair, the Kii three used on Audiogon.  

I love the simplicity of the Kii three and my wife loves the ease of use and compact design. If you want simple no fuss go this route and you will be happy. I kind of like fussing around with the system and seeing the equipment. This is what the passive speakers give you.  
 

If I ever replace the Focal system I’ll probably go with active speakers like Dutch & Dutch or Kii threes. 
 

You will be happy at this price point with whatever you do. The decision to me is more about what kind of experience your looking for. 

Long story short I can recommend both the Focal Utopia and the Kii three whole heartedly.  Keep looking for demo or used your on the right track

Thanks but i decided to stick with my Thiel CS 3.7s and i will mostly keep upgrading the pre-power part of my system in the future.

Most modern uber expensive speakers don't give me the joy and magic that i have with my Thiels.

 

Often the case, take to long and it gets harder to justify the expenditure.

I feel that i still haven't maxed out my Thiels, there is still lots of room for improvement in my system for the years to come therefore no need to change the speakers.
