Focal Kanta No 2


Would anyone be in support of upgrading from Kef Q-750's to the beautiful Focal Kanta No2's? I can't keep my eyes off of them and looking for forever (for now) speakers. Currently running Evo400 Integrated, which to my understanding should power them off of the EL34's without a problem. I'm not too sure if there is a dealer in my near vicinity to hear in person. The Kanta No 2's are actually above my price range so I'm not looking to go any higher. Thoughts/concerns?

@J-Wall - Just my two cents but I've owned the Kanta 2's for about a year and absolutely love them.  I'll tell you I did originally pair them with a Sigma 2200i which sounded great but the Sigma had electronic issues within the first month.  As the Sigma is no longer manufactured, I decided to go to a MA5300 (I had physical space constraints so couldn't do the 7200 without fears of overheating) and was really disappointed by the lack of headroom.  Upgraded to the Hegel 590 and have been happy as hell.  I can appreciate this might be a big jump cost but would say I personally noticed a big difference with more power.

Focal keeps on redoing its speaker lines.

The new Chora line takes several design cues from the Kanta.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Kanta line went through a refresh or a complete redo very soon.

 Do you think it will be an issue or will I be severely underpowering them? I asked a dealer the same question and he mentioned the EL34'S have enough output and he didn't think I needed to move up to KT88 or even KT150'S unless I wanted to. I do have some pause as recommend amp power ranges from 40-300 watts on Focal's website (I'm assuming per speaker). The Evo 400 integrated is only putting out 70 watts or channel, so i can assume some sort of headroom issue and if it can be solved moving up to bigger tubes.
I talked to Frank Van Alstine a bit back , he said . " In the 50 years I have been selling amps nobody has ever complained they had too much power".
