Focal Electra 1038be owners,


 what size is your listening room? I am seriously considering trying these, not sure if my room is too big/small. (pretty sure its not too big! )  Room is 14 x 21, with speaks on short wall, listening position about 14-15 ft away. Floor is carpeted and I have some treatments in place.  Thanks in advance for your input.

For two-channel: Parasound A21
For three-channel: Parasound A31

I use the prior with the 1038Be and it is fantastic (yet inexpensive).
Question to 1038Be owners: at what frequency do you crossover from the mains to your subs (assuming that you have one or two)?

I power them using the Parasound A21 (350 WPC into 4 ohms) but still get better sound with twin front-firing subs handling frequencies below 60Hz or 80Hz.

Kind of a bummer as the crossover from woofers to midrange driver is a low 230Hz.
