Yeah, a dealer over in Marietta has the new Stella Utopia’s in the showroom. They’re in the white gloss finish and simply stunning. They legit could pass as modern sculptures. The MSRP is 65k a pair. I gave him a shite by saying that I thought they were supposed to be a high end Focal dealer, but didn’t see a pair of the new Grande Utopia’s on the floor. They retail at 120k a pair. Said he sold one pair to a local athlete simply because they were 120k. Week later he came into store asking if he can return because “they ain’t no bangin’ loud party speaker.”

Anyway, the Stella Utopia’s sounded stunning. I didn’t want to fall in love with them because every speaker in my budget sound like a Sonos sound bar in comparison. I listened to 3 songs and bolted. If i win the lottery or inherit 7 figures, then we are in bidness.

He must be having a blowout sale!!

Focal just updated a couple of speakers in The Utopia line, but they weren’t major changes—internal wiring and crossovers. The new pricing is as follows...


The MSRP on the Grand Utopia is $215,000
The MSRP on the Stella Utopia is $102,000
The MSRP on the Maestro Utopia is $58,000
The MSRP on the Scala Utopia is $41,000


They aren’t playin’ around
