Focal Kanta 2

I purchased a pair of Kanta No. 2s about a year ago, I am driving them with a Levinson 585. with my digital source being an Aurender N10.  Speaker cables are Transparent Ultras.  I also have a pair of REL S5/SHO subwoofers.  The Kantas succeed at being both very detailed and dynamic, but never harsh or overly analytical.  I particularly like that while they excel with great recordings, they also are quite enjoyable with average, everyday recordings (which make up the bulk of what I listen to).  

I have heard a few, but by no means most of their competitors, so I can't really make any definitive statements about their competition - other than I obviously liked them better than anything else in their price range that I heard.  

One note - while the Kanta's bass is quite good down to the lower 40s/upper 30s (in my room at least) adding the RELs was really a big plus.  Not just with the lower end, but also with adding a definite sense of air around the performers.  The RELs are quick enough to blend seamlessly with the Kantas. 

I just received my Kanta 3 and center last week. Breaking them in has been torture but so far I'm very happy with the purchase. Driving them with M22v2 and M27 for the center (and rear/surrounds/atmos). Positioning is important atleast so far in my space, err on less toe in. 

Build quality is superb. Base is very clean and the sound stage is significantly larger with the 3 over kanta 2. 

I have the 807’s and like them a lot. They don’t have the beryllium tweeter which I assume the Kanta have and mine can get a little trashy. If the 807’s went lower than 50hz (like say 35) I’d keep them
forever.

probably didn’t help but thought I’d chime in for what it’s worth.

@ Contuzzi, I'm only expressing what was shown to me by the dealer I bought mine from.  He took the invoice out from Focal and showed me exactly what they paid.  Take for what it's worth?
