“I purchased the speakers over a month ago. Since then, it's been joy after joy listening to them! It started when i called Upscale Audio and asked for advices. I initially was considering other speakers that I read great review about (including by Upscale Audio) but Upscale Audio advised me to get the Focal Chora 816 speakers given the variety of music that i listen to, and the hi-fi components that i have (A SV500 Vincent integrated amp and my Acoustic Solid Wood turntable). I needed to replace my Elac Debut F5 floorstand speakers, which never truly satisfied me. They are enough for entry level but they "saturate" very rapidely and definitely not up to the part with the rest of my hi-fi system. And what a difference!!! the Focal Chora 816 are simply day and night with the Elac! The design is beautiful with the inclined base and the oval shaped magnetic grill. As soon as i installed them (very easy to assemble!) and connected them to my amp, I immediately heard a huge difference, and that is before i even adjusted their position in the room. For that purpose, Upscale Audio provided me with their setup CD that i highly recommend. It is a great help to get the best position of your speakers for the the best possible sound, and it includes very great songs as bonus! From the high end to the middle and bottonm end, the Focal Chora 816 totally meet my expectations. I also have a subwoofer and it adds a bit more bass to the already great one from the speakers. Overall, these speakers at this price point are a fantastic upgrade if you, like me, used to have entry level ones are you are ready to get a fantastic product without draining all your savings! they will help you to rediscover your music. Highly recommended!!!”
