Focal Sopra long term enjoyment

Kanta 2 here, and they are great with my McIntosh amp. Not tempted to replace at all.

Same here Kanta 2s for about 3 years 

When I bought them they were side by side a pair of Spendor floor standers 

The Spenders had a way way deeper soundstage.  Never experienced anything like it.The Focals you mention still have a lot of the same components 

an design which will give a a very detailed forward sound.  Modern sound if you will.

The Sopras will be very revealing and transparent  and I have been very happy with the Focal sound profile  

Make sure you match amplification and good cables 

Hope you get what your looking for

Current setup in my medium size room:  Sopra no2, Hegel power & pre,  Aurender, Holo May DAC, fully treated room.  I chose electronics that would skew towards an analogue presentation and I'm very pleased.   

Picking up some Sopra 2 tomorrow. Going to run with a Lyngdorf 2210 crossed over at around 60hz to JL Fathom sub. Hoping that gives me some detailed visceral mid/upper bass. 

I heard the bigger Utopias several times in the past and loved them. Dynamics off the charts but still very refined. From what I've researched the Sopra are similar soundwise but made for "normal" size rooms. At least that's what Google AI told me lol. I had some Chorus 836w speakers for a few years and thought they were great. Hoping these will build on that sound profile but be mo betta on everything. 

Replaced my very long term Martin Logan Requests with Sopra 3.  Been very impressed, added Nordost Sort Fut to them, yielding better focus and controlled bass.  Got carried away and add a few more Nordost products.  Sort cone, QB8 , Tyr power cord, QRT plugins, and topped it off with a Qkore 6. Cumulative improvement, best sound I’ve ever experienced in the room
