I use a pair of FOCAL JMLab Nova Utopia Be which has preponderous bass and is superbly balanced across the entire audio spectrum. Incredible transparency and immediacy. Of course I am using Jadis JA200 monoblocks (tubed, KT88s) to drive these. Using a Jadis JP80MC preamp with only RCA inputs and no sub out. So I have a pair of XLR interconnects from my Audio aero Prestige SE CD player concurrently driving a Utopia active sub (with its own 1000 watt BASH solid state amp) to extend the lows below the foundation. I can not get the Utopia sub volume higher than a notch or two from zero for the right balance of ultra low-bass. The music can be seen, heard and felt.Talk of a moving experience!!!
Focal vs Dali speakers
Anyone compare Focal vs Dali speakers? I am specifically looking at the the Dali Ikon 6 vs Focal chorus 816v. The focals are a bit more $$ but you don't have to bi wire them. Which would have better bass response in a large room? They are both highly regarded. Your thoughts please. Thanks.
