Nova Utopia Be or Dynaudio Temptation\Wilson Maxx


This is my first posting, so hi there from Australia.

I'm having a hard time deciding on my next speaker purchase and hopefully I can hear some of your thoughts so I can finally make a decision.

I currently have a pair of Dynaudio C4 and I’m looking at upgrading to JMlab Nova Utopia Be, Dynaudio Evidence Temptation or Wilson Puppy\Maxx. Or if anyone knows anything about the new Focal Utopia range I would be interested.

I have previously owned the Dynaudio Contour s5.4 and C2, B&W 802, Wilson Sophia and other bits and pieces. Amplification is currently Gryphon Antileon. Source is currently Mark Levinson 30.6 DAC and Mark Levinson 31.5 Transport. With MIT Oracle 2.1 speakers cables and MIT Oracle 2.2 interconnects.

I am leading towards Nova Utopia as I liked the sound of the Wilson Sophia and have been told that the Nova sound similar. I don’t know if the Dynaudio Evidence Temptation is better than the Nova Utopia or if I would prefer the Wilson Watt Puppy \ Maxx.

But then I guess it comes down to the usual ‘personal preference’ ‘room size’.

It's not easy to find and listen to this speakers in Australia so if anyone has any information or experiences....

He'll be fine and I'm sure it will sound excellent. No need to change anything.
Thanks Bar81. I never heard the MIT cables to sound dark and the Gryphon should take the edge of the Be.
The Nova Utopia be arrived last night. I'm glad I paid two guys to take them upstairs.
Let the fun begin.
congrats!! I have alto and may move to nova if the price on agon is good. I love 'em!!!

Thanks, I've just started breaking them in. 10 hours down and counting. They sound amazing, even out of the box.

Can anyone share their experience in breaking in the Nova or Alto?
