JM Lab Mezzo or Red Rose classic??

I wish I new about the Red Rose, but I don't. I can only tell you this, the JM Lab Mezzo's I feel are one of the Best speakers I have ever heard. Your room size will work for the Mezzo's as I heard them in a smaller room then what you have and they were awesome.

Ditto, above, Mezzo Utopia. With all due respect for the R-ROse product, the Utopia is in another league. (That's my opinion, of course). BTW, it's more a matter of design & components' quality than the country of manufacture (granted, though, some of the best drive units are produced in France)...

OTOH, you'd be well advised to try having the speakers fire down long side of the room. The Mezzo are big.

Cheers

Agree, Mezzo is best.

y use the mezzos in the same sizes and 1 meter more is better but its ok y have not any options. y had compare the mezzos ,b&w 802s ,mini utopia and sonus guarneri homage. for me the best is the mezzos and the mini utopia.

I am not that familiar with the Classics, though I have been very impressed with the other Red Rose speakers. The JM Lab Mezzos (or are you referrring to the Alto Be?) are terrific and the company is one that should be around for a long time (though, one can never can tell these days). I would opt for the Altos over the Mezzos if possible as they are quite an improvement IMO. I would suggest adding a few other contenders that are also very good: Genesis 501s (alot less expensive than the Altos and right up there sound-wise); Meadowlark Blue Herron II (I have not heard these but understand from a friend with better ears than me that they are fabulous) and lastly, the Linkwitz Orion (a DIY speaker designed by former Audio Artistry designer Sigfried Linkwitz, www.linkwitzlab.com). The Orion is the least expensive of the speakers mentioned and IMO arguably the best. Supporting electronics needn't be expensive with the Orions and you can have them made for you in any finish you'd like for under 6K. If you up the ante price-wise, I'd check out the Ascendo System Z and the Aerial 20Ts (I am in the process of trying these out now). Good luck.
