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.

Large room? Neither of those will put out much of what you are looking for. Loomis makes a good point about adding a sub in your situation. I would go for the FOCALS if adding a sub. If you dont want to add a sub, look at something different all-together. How big is the room?

as i should have indicated before, i'd actually opt for the focal cobalt (now discontinued, but widely available used for cheap) or electra, which have more seamless driver integration than the chorus.

thats not large Bobrock. Still, a sub will benefit the situation. Though, placement will be important. You can probably experiment and get adequate bass performance. Try that, then see if you need a sub.
