Focal Kanta No.2

Not sure where you guys are getting the $9,000 price but they will be $10,000.

Also, where did you hear that the prices of the Sopras are going up?

Anyone else hear these and want to give impressions?

rsure: Sounds like you were hearing the laid back sound of tubes vs devialet, rather than a difference in speakers.

Did you ever decide on one?

Kanta no3 will be out soon enough. Two 8.25” woofers and bigger cabinet. Should easily satisfy your “full range” needs for about $3,000 more...

As someone who has actually heard and spent a lot of time with the no2’s (what a concept!), I find the bass to be intensely impressive based on cabinet size.  Can’t wait to hear the no3.

@mtrot Where do you live?  If you live anywhere near the new Axpona location, there are three dealers right around there that have Kantas.   

Smallest floorstander in the lineup.  There will be Kanta no3 with substantially more bass.  

However, any good full range system would have properly integrated subs anyway....
