Kharma Ceramique 1.1 vs JM Labs Alto Utopia

I've narrowed it down to either of these two choice. I like good bass slam, dynamics, also a non fatiguing sound is important. Listen to mostly , pop , old and new rock, techno. Have 400 Watts RMS per channel and a room which is 18W X 20D. I would love to hear opinions and thoughts on which would be a better choice for me and how they differ in sound from each other.

Thanks,
Magoo

I dont think anything tops the tweeter of the Altos. I know people have their views on this but mine is that its accuracy, especially when driven with tubes, is wonderful and not tiring at all. The bass is good, not the sort of experience you would get with B&W 800s but sufficient for the space you describe. Dont forget they are quite large, though.
