This system has been ever evolving for nearly 20 years! I liked the focals so much I went ahead and moved the 926s to the surround position! The Scalas are some of the finest speakers I have ever heard...ever! I've heard and had a lot of speakers in this system over the years, and at this point I'm not sure how I could do much better.
The only items left in the chain that could use some immediate help are the phonostage, amplifier (I need one for the surround speakers and maybe an upgrade for the mains), and cables perhaps...
Would love any ideas on how to maximize the remaining rig!
I added Focal Sopra No.1's to my system a few months ago after upgrading from the Electras. I can only imagine how great the Scala Utopias sound, like you I think this is the best system I've put together after 44 years of trading in, and improving my system. Focal speakers are the bomb!
