    B&W 805s VS Focal Electra 1007Be

    Hi,

    As anyone compared the 805s to the 1007Be?

    I listened to both at two different shops and was very impressed.

    Cannot decide on which, 1007Be seems to be sweeter on the top end, but the 805s all round was excellent.

    To be used for music and HT.

    1007Be is pretty darn sexy too!

      Can you get home demo's of both? Then you can decide which sounds better with your electronics and enviroment?

          sounds to me like you like the Focal 1007be's. If sound of the two is close, go for the one that visually appeals to you most.

              Hi,

              I've been searching for a speaker upgrade that sounds as good as the B&W 802 or 803s, but without needing the major amplification upgrade I would need to match them. After lots of comparative listening in stores (hard because the brands I liked were all in different stores),              ...

              Speaker Selection For Two Channel Setup
              by whmacs
              Hi All,
              I've started the process of auditioning speakers for a two channel setup. The electronics will be either Rotel RC-1090 / RB-1080 / RCD-1072 or Musical Fidelity A3.2 integrated amp and an X-Ray CD player. I'm having problems trying to select speakers. I live 2 hours north of Sydney and...

              Hello all,

              I guess this is what it boils down to for me...

              For the past many weeks, as can be seen by my posts on this forum, I've been researching B&W and really wanting to get a pair. Started from the 703's and now have more or less convinced myself to get the 802D's......

              Halo + Electra
              by ColaBoy
              Hi,
              I need some more amps for my main speakers (Electra 926), and I really like the look and build of the Halo series. Would the A23 be a good choice or should I choose the A21?

              I also plan to upgrade to the never Electra 1027BE in 2007, so the amp must also match them.
