I was once at a demo for Focal given by Fabrice Dupont. The entire Focal range was set up.
Everyone was ooing and aahing at the speakers. But I thought the Twins sounded like it had some phase anomalies going on. I turned to a well respected engineer sitting next to me and told him what I thought and he said he heard it too. I suspected the dual driver design.There was nothing wrong with it, just had this hyped sound, like a nice hi fi speaker. I was not convinced. I felt the Solo 6 was the stand out. of the range.
But the CMS 40 performance was quite amazing as well.
