If I remember right, the "S" models had a slightly better crossover.
Finding a matching center channel
Hi guys! I'm building a home theater and bought a pair of Focal Cobalt 816S speakers to be my front left and right. I'm having a lot of trouble finding a matching center channel (The cobalt CC800s), which is understandable given the age of these speakers.
I understand that the Cobalt line has been replaced with the Chorus line. Would a CC700V or CC900 sound comparable? I just don't want my front stage to sound worse because of a non-matching center. the speakers are far enough apart that the 'phantom center' has left me wanting...
Thanks for any advice!

Haha i saw it too, and bought it! One thing to ask: that speaker is a different color then my fronts. I kind of want to paint them to be the same color as the walls in my theater (a dark orange-brown color). Is there any reason i shouldn’t do that? edit: i just mean the sides of the case. My fronts are black, this new one is a reddish. see the link below for a reference. http://www.villatech.fr/media/1000006998_COBALT_806_S_STYLE.pdf |
