Anybody have Focal Kanta 2


How do they sound with solid state

I heard the Kanta 2 at RMAF two years ago and they were damn near best of the show IMHO. They were using NAIM gear and had a good setup although not ideal but man did they bring the goods! 
I have a difficult room and the kanta 3 had a +10db spike at 100hz and dropped like a rock from there so they were -40at 60 hz. The mids and treble integrated nicely with my room and imaging was also excellent, nothing like the ear bleeding experiences of focal back in the day. I don't fault the speakers for bass below 300hz as the experts say anything below there is room dependent. I find most speakers I measure in this room (simple phone/tablet app)have a nice boost around 100hz.
I upgraded a pair of Focal Aria 926 in our living room to a pair of Kanta no 2 about two months ago.  I’ve got them running off a Cambridge Audio CXA80 and they sound much more detailed than my old 926.  I really like the sound from the CXA80.  I do plan to upgrade my amp sometime, but we have a small room with a small media cabinet and most amps don’t fit.  Honestly, I’m thrilled with the improvement of the Kanta from the Aria, which I also loved.  The Kanta really are in a class above.
