After living a little more than a half century, I have decided to treat myself to better audio gear. I recently purchased a pair of Focal 1008 BE speakers and am in the process of purchasing an Ayon Spirit III amp.
Hi Socfan12. I have a pair of B&W CM9's along with an Anthem MRX 700 and Anthem amp driving them. The system was just not cutting it. Once I heard the Focals I knew that I had to have a pair.
From what I remember 1008Be throws an enveloping sound and sound stage is very deep. And match very well with class A amplification. Pass XA30.5 or XA30.8 or their class A integrateds would bring out the best in them.
