Focal Sopra 2’s vs. Legacy Focus SE’s

Thanks again everyone…

ELAC 409s. Can get a great deal on a pair 

@bobbyloans I like and have owned Elac speakers in the past, but I’m certain even the 409 won’t be on the same level of performance as the other two you are considering. To start, the tweeters on both the Legacy and Focal will be much more resolving, involving, and refined. 

I’d have to say I agree with your statement and am probably looking for confirmation…. I appreciate your input.  I may also be able to get a pair of PBN Montana EPS-2’s which are a very excellent sounding speaker.  Not too many people know of PBN but wow do a little research for fun…

thanks again 

@bobbyloans I actually know someone here who had the PBN Montana EPS-2 a few years ago. I think he was able to get them for $2400 or so. I have a lot of respect for PBN, especially with their new amplifiers, but I was not at all a fan of that speaker. That friend sold them and upgraded to speaker from T+A, purchased from me. I would still push for Legacy for the combination of musicality, coherence, and resolution over that of the PBN, which I found to be more shrill in comparison.

Wow that’s interesting to hear. Are you sure they were EPS2s at that price? Peter makes a lot of speakers with similar sounding model numbers.  Example- I currently have spx2s. There are also Xps models …. It gets confusing . How big were his in height ?
