Focal Micro Utopia + REL or 1028be II ?

Hey,

I have to chose from those:

Focal Micro Utopia Be (incl original SMU stands) + REL R-528
or
Focal Electra 1028be II (can link the REL as well)

The Micro Utopia used to be (or still is) one of the best stand-mount speakers, with the first generation of the Beryllium tweeter, but the 1028 has the second generation of the Be tweeter + of the floor-standing speakers advantages.

What would you choose ?

I just LOVE the Be tweeters.
I've heard Nova Utopia, Diablo Utopia, 1038be, and even Paradigm Signature S8... This tweeter is a masterpiece.

Thanks guys.
Bought the Micro Utopia Be.

Kipikipod, congratulation for the new speakers. You did very good (IMO)!

Which amp/cd-player are you using?

Thanks very much guys.

My current set-up:
Peachtree Audio Nova (+ Siemens CCA tube @ pre) - Going to change when I'll have a decent budget, I know its worth like the SMU stands of my new Focal's :x
As transport I'm using M2TECH EVO Hiface+EVO Power Supply+EVO DAC + HTPC - When you get used to a PC there's no turning back...
