Looking at Focal


I'm looking to replace my B&W 803s for the Focal Kanta 3.  It's hard for me to travel so can't go listen. What differences could I expect I have an upgraded Carver TFM 45 & a 1070 Rotel pre.

Not to throw a wrench into things but at the price point of the kanta 3 you might want to take a look at the magico a3. Imo they are a better built speaker that I would say beats the focal in terms of resolution and has tighter bass and better staging when properly setup. They are more demanding of the equipment feeding them though.

Yes magico does require more power generally. I would disagree about low level listening. I have a pair of s1mk2 and they sound pretty damn good at around 65db. They do sound even better at 75db though. Plus they are a much better build quality as well.
