| Upgrade? Dang....sorry...I got the whole thing backwards on your speakers. Lol. Well...while my resolution above is probably zero help to you, my premise of comparison is the same..... if you generally like your Legacies, the Focals are a very different ... | |
| Upgrade? Alman...thanks for the info. So, again on the basis of a commonallity in sound between our speakers, I offer the following: I originally ran my paradigm set up with the halo A51 and now use that for surrounds, with JC 1s up front. That upgrade ... | |

| What's happened to the used high end market recently?? Sales are tough....:0( While all of the responses have a real foundation, I believe a key reality is missing from them.
