Sources for Focal 1038Be II

1027 and 1037 are be-1, 1028 and 1038 are all be-2 with the bigger tweeter. Confirmed with focal

Yes I was of course correct about that.  Not sure why it was questioned.

ANYWAY, the 1028/1038 sound nothing like newer focal.  It is the last of the slightly forward/bright sound they were known for when not matched perfectly with the right gear.
 
I’d take a Kanta no2 over a 1038 any day.  The deal on the Electras now is tempting but make sure you can hear them first or you may regret it.

DJMitchells assertion ("Per Focal, there is no difference between 1038 Be and 1038 Be II. They are the same.") was correct, as all 1038s have the same tweeter and there is no such thing as a 1038 Be-1.

They may seem a bit bright at first, but after break in, the drivers settle in quite well.  I’m tempted to replace the Revel F208s in my bedroom with another set of 1038BE.

do you find f208s lacking something compared with those focals?
