Focal Sopra 1 Bookshelves (with subs) or Focal Kanta 2s towers instead?


I am having trouble deciding between Sopra 1 speakers and the Kanta 2 towers by Focal. I heard them both in the store using a MacIntosh 12000. I currently have a Yamaha AS-3200 amp but I will eventually be buying the MacIntosh 12000 also. All new equipment and not used.

 

The room these will live in is about 300 square feet... like a 13 x 26 foot shoe box design. The room is untreated and I do not plan on treating the room or using room correction software. I have no interest in that.

 

I love the imaging and separation of the Sopra 1s. But I also love the warmth and low mids that the Kanta 2 speakers give. If I was to get the Sopra 1s, I would get 2 REL 510 subs with it.

 

Any opinions, please on if I should get the Sopra 1s or Kanta 2s?

 

Side note: I am not considering anything else... I like Focal/McIntosh set up I heard at the store and sticking with it.

I will definitely go with sopra 1 with subs

99.9 % of speakers out there will increasingly benefit from subwoofers 

To me kanta is too ugly speakers I really can’t believe focal made that thing 😉😉😉😉😌😂
