| Repair Used Focal Speakers Thanks everyone for the very helpful responses. I will contact the local dealer and see what they can do. | |
| Repair Used Focal Speakers Thanks erik, the speakers are Sopra No.2 and they each have 2 woofers. For sake of description, the left channel full speaker works great, the right channel has the problem. The right channel upper woofer, does produce lower sound and volume but ... | |
| Amp for Focal Electra 1008Be Congrats on the Hegel, I have enjoyed mine for many months and it sounds great with my Focal Sopra No.2's. It will take some time to break in and open up. You will notice the difference when you hit about 30 hours and it will keep getting better f... | |
| Amp for Focal Electra 1008Be For speaker cabling I have Silnote Poseidon, great bang for the buck. | |
| Amp for Focal Electra 1008Be The Hegel H160, is a superb sounding unit, with a superb DAC and has plenty of warmth (opinion by reviewers is it has Tube warmth while being SS). I have used mine with Focal Sopra No.2's and the combination is really nice. The H160 has superb so... | |
| Am I the only one to opt-out on the Sopra 2's? Speakers, what an interesting learning process. I currently have 3 sets, DALI Ikon 2, Mark 2, Joseph Audio RM25XL Mark 2, and the Sopra No.2.Have tried each speaker set up with Hegel H300 or Hegel H160, in 3 different rooms in my home. The Sopra's... | |
| Focal Sopra 2/3 vs Harbeth SHL5 Plus Actually I have been a guitarist for over 40 years. Still play in a Rock/Blues band, majority of my Albums/CD's are guitarists. Listen to everything from Eric Johnson, Joe Satriani, Hendrix, Cream, to Acoustics, Wes Montgomery etc.The Sopra's hand... | |
| Integrated Match to Focal Spora No. 2 I bought a slightly used pair, mint with only 20 hours on them. Got them at over 40% below retail. They arrived in mint condition and couldn't be happier. I have been watching the current one's on AG, he had to relist them after 30 days. He hasn'... | |
| Enjoying My New Focal Sopra No2's The same speaker will perform differently depending on the front end. My Hegel H300, has a very musical bottom, works great with the Sopra, which extends down to 28HZ. Not a lean speaker at all. As a matter of fact one my daughters Kanye CD's shak... | |
| Enjoying My New Focal Sopra No2's Stevizzy.... I am interested in the 700I, which I see you have mated with the Sopra's. A friend has the 600i, sounds great with his speakers, Vienna Acoustics, Baby Grands I think. I am going to try it with my Sopra's sometime soon I hope.There is... | |
| Enjoying My New Focal Sopra No2's Have had mine just over a month. They sound great and are opening up. I would estimate I have about 100 hours on them. I kept my old system for comparison and enjoyment in a smaller listening room., Hegel H160 mated with Joseph Audio RMXL 25's Mar... | |
| Focal Sopra 2 Vs Wilson Sophia 3 I have been interested in the Simaudio 700i, a friend of mine has the 600i and it sounds very good with his set up. It seems the Sopra 2's respond very well to integrateds that are more high level. I have the Hegel H300 and the Sopra's really resp... | |
| Focal Sopra 2 Vs Wilson Sophia 3 I had Class D for about 6 months (Bel Canto), liked initially but just couldn't connect over time. Class D is more clinical to me and less musical. I wouldn't say it lowered the quality just different and less favorable to me. Some love Class D.Ag... | |
| Focal Sopra 2 Vs Wilson Sophia 3 I listened to the Magico S3's with a Class D Front end for a good hour or so, was very nice. I liked the Sopra's much better with my Hegel H300, they dig deeper and sounded more musical to me. The Sopra's were better priced also. Have had them a f... | |
| best integrated amp. I believe the Sonneteer is an Amp and not an integrated amp. However does look interesting and made to order, based on web site. |
