Focal Kanta No.2

Techno babble is fun in the terms that it give ideas onto where things go next. Speaker performance in my view has some ways to go yet still. The engineering exercise in my view is rather interesting.

Well, I live in east Texas and I've looked around a bit in Dallas and didn't find any Kanta, or even any Focal, for that matter.  Perhaps I need to look some more.

But I do have AXPONA tickets and a room reservation in hand!

My room is on the smaller size of average I'd say. It's about the smallest space Focal recommends for 936's. I made that choice quite deliberately because you're virtually always going to end up with better bass reproduction from 2 sources instead of 4. If I hadn't considered that a significant problem I'd have bought 1008 Be's and augmented them with subs. I'm well aware of the EM drivers. That technology is far to expensive to apply to $10,000 speakers. That's why they use NIC motors to increase the linearity of the motor over long excursions.

I'm not trying to pick on you specifically. You made a statement that gets tossed around here a lot based on what appears to be a misunderstanding of what a low point measurement is.

I do think the big GE's are more voiced for HT use. Movie soundtracks aren't as disrupted by insanely overblown bass like the big GE's are prone to from one music track to another. Their voicing strikes me as hyper-real while being polite and clinical with weaker image depth. They lacked something Focal brings to the table. 

There have been a few mentions here of a new and bigger Kanta No.3 coming soon, yet I’ve seen no info to that extent even from Focal when I inquired. Since I would likely be all in if this were the case, I’m wondering if the anticipation for such is from a verifiable source rather than just a `wish for’ possibility?
