B&W vs FOCAL


I know that these two Companies are at the front of the current Tweeter Wars (Diamond vs Beryllium). I know that B&W sells more Speakers and that FOCAL produces more expensive Speakers (Nova & Grand Utopia), but is one generally considered to be better than the other?

I'm looking to make a High-End Speaker purchase this month and have narrowed it down to these two Manufacturers.

Owners opinions would be greatly appreciated.

Berryllium, Diamond, Titanium...whatever happened to good old silk. Ive owned 2 and auditioned the diamond, if there is a tweeter war going on all 3 take a back seat to silk and tubes in my book. Last staw was a wilson sophia/ levinson demo..after lacerating my eardrum I could never listen to anything else.
