Why not? What about the (Stella? Scala?) Utopia in particular makes you think that a compare-and-contrast can't be done? They're still both speakers which serve a function.
And if you answer my question then you'll be doing exactly what I was doing 
Is because that you think
only mediocrity can had for the Mini Monitor's street price? Surely you don't feel the Utopia is worth anywhere near what its street price is, do you? Because no speaker pair is worth more than $15, 000. Not a single one. For the type of money the Scala Utopia goes for, you can buy a whole, financially struggling orchestra and have them play in your living room for a year and still be paid well by their standards, and i'm about 40% sure it would be more pleasing, although according to some people in the Vienna Acoustics thread, it wouldn't.
The only justification for something like a Grand Utopia is not the sound, but the aesthetics. Because a $6000 Summa probably has it beat on the sound front.
Lol, I'm flattered! However I couldn't hope to review any speaker sufficiently for my own standards, never mind others. Between lack of measurement equipment, lack of a trained ear, lack of familiarity with enough instruments, lack of time/patience, lack of understanding of psychoacoustics as well as the engineering which goes into speaker design, I'd fail
miserably. I'd end up in some magazine explaining the superior soundstaging characteristics of 18awg silver or something silly like that. ... okay I hopefully would not.
