Has anyone heard the Focal 1028BE ?


Just wondering if anyone has heard Focal's 1028BE speakers?

It uses a 27mm tweeter and a re-worked crossover while the
discontinued 1027BE uses a 25mm tweeter.

By chance has anyone heard both and could compare how they
differ in sound??

Thanks..

I own the 1037 and listened to the 1038 and didn't hear much of a difference. The 1/4" difference in the Berryllium tweeter is NOT substantial. The porting didn't make a huge difference either. Retail the price has risen $500. I'll keep my 1037's ............
I too visited RMAF Tom. It's hard to judge what you hear when they use different electronics than you do at home. I have a large listening area and I run two JL Audio F113's with the 1037's. I don't have brightness issues with the Berrylium Tweaters. Either one 1037 or 1038 would be an awesome addition for you. I love the Focal sound. I went to Focal from Magnepan and have never looked back .....
