I had a few drinks and bought some speakers

Last night as I was polishing off a few of Texas' finest Balcones Bourbon, I purchased a used pair of Focal Sopra 2's. I current own the Electra 1028's. Can anyone give me some opinions or thoughts of the speaker decision? These have been my end all be all speakers, but I have concerns my room might be a little small being 13x8. Any info is appreciated!

The Focal Sopras are my favorite speaker under $55k. They are really spectacular. Give them room to breathe if you can and they paint an amazing picture. I have had them for years now and continue to be amazed and beyond satisfied. Congratulations on your new speakers I hope they bring you much enjoyment.

It depends on your taste. If you like them then you are good. If you don’t, keep drinking, eventually they will start sounding good. I had mine for 3 years and got tired of their brightness and hyper-space detail and eventually sold them and ordered a pair of ATC-150s. It really matters what you pair them with, it does make a difference.

You don't have a drinking problem you have a room problem.  Now that you have 2 sets of speakers, you will need to dedicate another room to listening.  Yes, you will need to buy input and amplification for this other room.  Drink more, you will be there in no time.
