Any Legacy Focus SE owners out there ?


I bought a new pair and have been breaking them in. The longer they play, the better they sound and they're not set up optimally - at all. Got them to replace my cherished Infinity R90's because of the tweeter/upper mid approach, which strongly echo's those amazing speakers. No disappointment there ;-)

Curious to hear from other owners as to what was the magic break in hour for you and, any special placement things you've learned. For example, they throw off enough Bass energy that they need good space off the back wall to not sound too chesty.

I have an original pair of Focus from about 1999 and still love them. Every few years I get the itch to upgrade but after I go shopping and listening I decide to keep them. My room is 20x28 with 10.5 ceilings and mine sit about 2.5 feet off the wall leaving me about 17 feet away in my chair. They are placed about 12' apart leaving over 8 feet for a wall on each side. the soundstage is HUGE and I used a Pioneer Elite receivers built in frequency system to do the EQ work and flatten the response in my room.
