Its was pretty harsh sounding and the bass was lean
Never heard the Diablo 300 described as lean. Tight, controlled and authoritative bass, yes, but lean, no way.

I have spent time with the Focal Sopra 2. It does compete (not better than) Thiel Audio CS 2.4, CS 2.4 SE, CS2.7, CS 3.7 and Wilson Audio Sabrina/Sabrina X. Perhaps the Sopra 3 takes on CS 3.7 and Wilson Audio models above the Sabrina/SabrinaX up to DAW? Very similar to a Thiel Audio loudspeaker, in that, careful Gear matching is key to avoid excessive brightness from the Tweeter.
Happy Listening!

Like @jafant said gear matching is the key and i can tell you guys that the Diablo 300 is really not a good match for Thiels, the tweeters will let you know. Even with Cardas cabling it didn't tame the treble so i got fed up and sold my Diablo 300. If you want Danish better look at Vitus awsome match with Thiels. Just my 2 cents. I think i'm going to order the Isoacoustics Gaia ll footers for my 3.7s, will let you guys know how that work. I already put many of them under my electronics and the result is spectacular. |
