Focal JM Labs Electra 937 Be vs Electra 946

I own a pair of 946 Electra's and I have heard the 937 Be's at a local dealer. The complete Electra line are ALL fabulous speakers. I like the 946 because it is a rather large size speaker and gives a large live type sound due to the cabinet size and the dual 10 inch woofers. Later on a local dealer got a set of the 937 Be's in and when I heard them I was expecting them to not be quite as strong in the bass department because they only have 8 inch woofers but I was very surprised that the bass energy was very close to my 946 Electras. The Be tweeter is truly amazing and is very highly rated as being possibly the world's best tweeter. As good as the 946 Electras are, the 937 Be's are still a little smoother sounding and a little better in imaging, transparency, detail, very close to Utopia level. Although they might give up a small bit of bass energy and slam to the 946's, their exceptional midrange and treble performance make up for it. I just wish they would have come out with a 947 Be, that would be my ultimate choice. You made a fine choice with the 937 Be, they are superb speakers, enjoy them.

the 937 Be Electras are exceptional speakers. If I hadn't bought Alto Utopias, I would have been very tempted to choose the 937Be over the Diva Utopias. I think they're a better value and I prefer the more directional drivers. Good choice. You'll be very happy with them.

Hey Guys, thank you all for your kind responses to my questions. I think I might have paid too much for the speakers (7K) but if the sound is as good as you say, I guess, I'll reap the benefits in sound rewards.
