Has anyone heard the Focal 1028BE ?

Thanks Zenieth. I heard the 1038BE myself at RMAF and was wowed by them but they would be too big for my room since they would sit along a wall that is only 12.5 feet wide.

I did read in one place on the net that the 1037BE was slightly brighter in the highs than the 1038BE. That particular person mentioned that the 1038BE's tweeter was a welcome change in that (in his opinion)the 1037BE had a little too much sizzle in the highs.

In my room (12.5 x 24) the 1027BE or 1028BE would be the right size. I see 1027BE's used for good prices so while I try to hold out for a used set of 1028BE, I am constantly tempted by 1027BE's.

Focal has such a nice sound. I wonder why they are not discussed more often.

Zenieth:

oh my... 2! 13" subwoofers with a pair of 1037BE's? The 1038BE/1037BE's already put out plenty of bass..

And I agree different room sizes AND different equipment will make a huge difference in the sound.

In my case I need to go with the smaller 1027BE or 1028BE due to room size. Maybe someone who has demo'ed both will chime in. But nice to see other fans of focal..
