    I heard a set in Singapore but I can only assume they were set up poorly as it did not go well and I didn't listen long! 😅

    Funny how opinions vary. I was going to say that I’m sure they sound fantastic, but I’m not crazy about their looks.

    Honestly gear like this just doesn't capture well in pictures.

    Wilson looks hideous in photos. I'm person it is a completely different story.

    Focal is no different, the utopias are artwork, they truly are massive and are expertly sculpted.

    They are also incredibly difficult to build a system around but very rewarding when you find the synergy

    I can certainly see how people aren’t attracted to Focals, especially if you like more traditionally designed speakers.

    I wouldn’t kick em out of bed
