New Focal.JMlab Electra speakers


The new Focal.JMlab Electra line looks awesome, I guess Focal is finally getting serious about going after B&W 800-series buyers. I believe they are schedule for a Fall intro. in the US. Does anyone have any addt'l info. on these speakers (1027 BE & 1037 BE)?

You can see some scans of the Electra 1027Be and Electra 1007Be here:

I have posted this before, it is in norwegian, but you you can check out the scans.

They are out already here in Norway, and they look a bit like Sonus Faber :o)
Is the new Profile good?

Could anyone who have auditioned it share their views?

many thanks!
The Profile actually replaces the Cobalts and not the Electras. The new Electra line definately has my interest.
Thanks for the info. My dealer's website words it as if the Profiles are replacing the Electras. Thank god that's not true, I think the Profiles are ugly.
Those Electras do look very promising, but I've yet to hear or see them...thanks for the lookout.
It looks like they're scheduled for a worldwide release in September (next month). It might take a couple of months before US Dealers take delivery. This is why the old Electra line including Be models are being deeply discounted. The 1007Be (stand-mount) and 1027Be (floor-stander) will be the first 2 models released, with the larger 1037Be to soon follow. These 3-models will complete the new Electra line. see link:
