Why so many used focals?

That’s because they are horrible speakers.

Their company moto should be, “where’s the gas’s.”

Being a obvious troll is horrible. If you don’t like the sound that’s fine but a company that’s been around for over 40 years, designs and manufactures all of the cabinets and drivers in there own factory in France and have plenty of positive reviews from people and trade reviews is not a horrible speaker.

There’s a lot of companies I’m not a fan of but I wouldn’t call then horrible. The companies I’m not a fan of are ones that are small making speakers out of their garage with off the shelf drivers bought from Parts express.

You never know how long they will be around and what if any testing equipment they have.

If you wanted to be helpful say what model you listened to and why or what you didn't like about it. 

A couple years ago, I was enamored with the idea of the Electra 1038Be's for ~$10k, after hearing them at a show.  Then I heard them at a local dealer and A/B'd them with the Aria 948's (only $5k).  I actually preferred the liveliness and transient response of the Aria over the overly refined and constrained sound of the Electra.  However, the Electra was better on top, thanks to the Be tweeter.  The HF was the Aria's weakness.  Both were driven by the same Mac amp.    

Now, with the Kanta's merging the Flax drivers with the Be tweeter... that just might be the sweet spot.... too bad the price is way up there.  I refuse to deal with less than 8" drivers.   I don't care what the specs say; small woofers just don't satisfy me over the long haul.   Maybe THAT's why so many people are selling their tall narrow tower speakers with tiny woofers.  (but what are they switching to??)   My last offload was a pair of Dynaudio Focus 480's with dual 8" woofers.....  An amazing and beautiful speaker in many areas, but alas.... it left me unsatisfied.   

That is why the Kanta no. 3 exists.

its the B&W of France 
 that has to be embarrassing
