Focal just announced their first DSP-based active (Hi-Fi) speakers today. These will act as an all-in-one connected system. They so join other traditional manufacturers such as KEF, Dynaudio, Sonus Faber or DALI in that new market. Except these ones come at a fairly high price tag (I mean it ...

I am going to get Focal Kanta 2 speakers for non critical listening. I will be using my current Sopra N1s for critical listening. Currently, my N1s are 8 1/2 feet apart. They are 1 1/2 feet from the walls. I am limited on room so I will need to place the Kanta 2s right next to the N1s. Will...

I currently own a Naim Uniti Atom paired with Focal Clear OG, and I mostly listen to pop and classical music. I'm considering an upgrade and would appreciate your recommendations. My budget allows for two options: selling my Focal Clear to upgrade to the Focal Utopia 2020 or keeping the Clear...

Hey everyone, I have an extra Focal Astral 16 in stock ready to ship. The MSRP is $19,999, and I'm offering this unit at 40% off $12,000 shipping and processing fees included. Think of the Astral as a receiver version of the StormAudio ISP Elite. Astral's identical cousin, StormAudio I.ISP...

I am slowly putting together my final system. After much time, I have picked out the Focal Sopra 1 bookshelves and the MacIntosh 12000 amp. But come to my dismay, I found the Sopra 1 recommended power is 25-150 watts (4 ohm). The MacIntosh is 350 watts x 2 (any ohm). Does this mean that there is...

I am having a hard time deciding. This is for a room at 300 sq feet. I do not use room correction and I also do not treat my room (I choose not to and there is no changing that). I have narrowed my choices between Focal Kanta 2 towers or Focal Sopra 1 with 2 REL 510 subs (or maybe just one). A...

Trying to get a precise estimate of self-generated noise level on Kali LP V2 and IN V2 models. Heard lots of folks say they are silent and less noise than V1. But how much exactly? Though somebody made this form...

I was in the hi fi store and I heard the McIntosh 12000 with the Focal Kanta 2s. I loved the sound...it really appealed to me. To me, it was really great synergy. Those are 8 ohm speakers (at least by Focals website). At the store, they were plugged into the McIntosh 4 ohm port. The person said...

I like Focal Kanta's 2. I have heard them in a store off of a McIntosh 1200 amp which was 350 watts the 8 ohms. The speakers are 50-300 watts rating at 8 ohms. Right now I have a Yamaha AS-3200 which is only 100 watts at 8 ohms. Is that going to significantly under power the focals?

Sorry for the long title... I have come to a studio and i have these speakers in front of me Genelec 8030c, Neumann KH120, Dynaudio LYD7, Focal Alpha 50 Evo and i want to say about my opinion on each. - Genelec 8030c, made in Finland, very good build quality, rounded alluminum cabinet, bass...

I have a Yamaha r-n2000a amp which is (8/6/4/2 ohms) 100 / 130 / 185 / 215 W. I am looking to get tower speakers. I narrowed down my choices to ether MartinLogan Motion® XT F100 or the Focal Aria 936. They will be used with a REL t7/x sub which I currently own. This will be for my living room...

Hi, I am moving and sadly have to part with my Focal Radiance. I am the second owner but have taken good care of them, and they are in good condition. Comes with original box and Dekoni pads ($50.00 value) that I prefer over the standard pads (also included). I took some quick pictures, but let...

This offer is made in the San Francisco Bay Area for pickup, not for shipment. Here is the text of my Craigslist ad, where you can also see photos: The sound is natural, detailed, and musical. These speakers function like new. For appearance, the glossy sides have near-new sheen, the front...
