Sopra N°2
Focals do what the electronics tell them to, nothing more and nothing less. That's why I love them! That's why so many gear companies demo with them. 
Which Budget Friendly Floorstanders Next?
I don't think the Focal 900 series is a good indicator of what the 700 series are like. The F cone sounds radically different than Polyglass and I don't think they're anywhere near as precise. I listened to Golden Ears, the entire Chorus and Aria ...
