Why so little none impressions on Focal Maestro?

everybody talks about Wilson Sasha, Vandersteen 7, Sonus faber, but this speaker which was released last year received basicaly none feedback. Is it size, price or performance are medciore to most ears? or they are so seriuos performers that do not need any talks?

I think he means there has not been a lot of positive feedback here on Agon by owners of the Focal Maestro Utopias.

How many people can afford a speaker at over 50K, not to mention the space dimensions as well as the weight at +250lbs.

Maybe these are more popular in Europe as opposed to the US based Vandersteens and Wilsons.
Wilson - is also a status symbol...for some of the rich to say - they have Wilsons. That is not a knock on their performance at all. All the times I have heard them - in context the system as a whole it was great sound.
