Just got the Focal Scala V2 at a great price

@mzkmxcv thanks for letting me know about these mono blocks.  I found the dealer and I will get in touch with them to demo cheers for that

It’s purely stereo Hifi and am based in the UK.  Didnt think a sub was in play with these speakers but I might be mistaken.  Any help here is more appreciated cheers 

I will have a look at that too, thanks again. 

Thanks mmorison55.  The Mac dealer is not far from where I live.  I have auditioned a range of macs previously with a set Focal V1 and I wasn’t crazy about them, maybe it’s the way I am used to the sound - I like my music a bit more open and slightly on the bright side. In England macs cost double the price of what they cost in the US and not much gear available on the 2nd hand market. The list is massive moving forward but wanted to narrow the choices to few.  Heard that a tube pre amp would be great with this combo as they are bright with a Decent ss amp. I know the folks at Stone audio - will go there next week. Cheers! 

@alucard19 I am reading about them as we speak thanks for tip

Thanks guys.  For the budget on amp I can go up to £7k for the preamp between 4-6k 

@headphonedreams devialet is great but I want separates on the system.  As for the ML the ones I liked were above £18k!

£9k 

Nhoj4203 nice amps.  What sort of music you listen to? How is the base on them?  Did you buy them specifically for the speakers or you had them before? 

Thanks for your input atekelidis. I have narrowed down the list quite substantially now, I am not a big fan of Naim as I heard them before on other speakers and didn’t like them..  Maybe I should revisit with the V2s worth a listen.
