I would try to get a home demo of the the 948s before purchase. I heard them at a dealer in a pretty decent sized room, and the sound was just too much, seemed like it was overloading the whole room. I will admit that the room needed treatments, so that could have been part of the issue. Unless your listening room is pretty big, the Aria 936 may be a better option.
Focal Aria 948 Question, No area to demo near me
Hello Audiogon, I have listened to Focal Aria 906 bookshelves and liked the crisp accuracy.
There are a pair of Demo barely used Focal Aria 948s for sale locally for $2,750 and I'm thinking of snagging them up.
My ears are somewhat limited to Kef R700s, Polk LSIM 707s, Infinity R.S. 2.5s, A/D/S/ 1290s, and that's about it as far as full range goes.
I guess my question is do the Focal Aria 948s do a good job of rounding out the low end without being too overbearing on it? And is $2750 for basically new in box a good deal?
