the focal may be more 'transparent', but the usher has a lot of 'weight' for a speaker its size. i think this is a sideways move at best.
Usher 718 BE's vs Focal 1007 BE's
I’m intrigued by the press on the Focal 1007 BE’s and would like advice and opinions on how members would rate the Focal 1007 BE’s compared against my present speakers (Usher 718 BE’s). The Usher 718 BE’s are IMHO amazing… but I’ve got the up-grade itch. My system includes:
Theta Casablanca II Pre-Pro
Theta Compli CD/DVD
Theta Intrepid 5 Channel Amp
Kubala-Sosna Expression IC’s, SC’s
Black Sand Statement PC’s
Sound Anchor 4 Post Speaker Stands
Audience Power Conditioner
Thanks… Rich
