Focal Electra 100BE Speakers
Does anyone own or have heard the Focal Electra 1008BE bookshelf speakers? I am wondering if they would sound good with tube gear, how easy to drive they are (or are the finicky with certain types of equipment), how forgiving are they with room placement, and if they are too dynamic where listening fatigue sets it.
I am currently running a Primaluna HP Dialogue Integrated Amp (70 watts in tube power), VPI prime turntable. Going to get a Herron VTPH2 phono stage and a Marantz SA14S1 CD player in the near future. Looking for a smooth yet detailed speaker with a touch of warmth that would really go well and complement the rest of my system. Definitely do not want listener fatigue. I listen to mostly jazz, soul, and pop, with some rock and classical. Any other suggestions would be appreciative. It does not have to bookshelf speakers either. Looking to stay $4000 or under. Thanks!
