How do they sound for natural female vocals, such as Sarah Vaughan, Crystal Gayle, Laura Fabian, Linda Ronstadt, Linda Eder, or male vocals like Roy Hamilton Elvis Presley, Tom Jones Engelbert Humperdinck, Rolando Villazon, etc. compared to other speakers in it's price range, such as the Revel PerformaBe F226Be, or even the Klipsch Cornwall IV or La Scala?

@@fredbloggs6080 I have not heard a Revel speaker in a very long time so I cannot speak to it. From what I recall if you like the Focal you will like the Revel. IMHO the Focal is perfect for the artist you listed. It will provide a more they are in the room with you presence than the Klipsch. To my ear the Klipsch is a Classic Rock speaker, they have a bit of a larger-than-life sound. Fun stuff to be sure but for intimacy with the artist's performance I personally like the Focal products better.

@@ridirefain6606 Thanks for your answer. It's really hard to tell without listening to them and even in the showroom they may not sound the same as at home. I did listen to the Cornwall IV which I liked better than the Forte IV, but they were far apart and it was a very large room with high ceilings; the showroom(s) were actually in a loft. When I played Roy Hamilton they did capture his open throated belting at the end of the song. That's the type of thing I most interested in. While I appreciate the detail it's the tonal quality of The Voice that concerns me the most. In the 1980s I had a pair of speakers I bought from my neighbor that had been demo speakers for a company that set up PSA systems and provided components to other manufactures I think. They had a 12 inch woofer, a horizontal horn midrange like Klipsch and JBL, and two separate tweeters above that with, I think, a 1 to 7 scale adjustment for each, one which I didn't mess with. They had a very vivid rendition of human voices and horns like trumpets. About 23 to 25 years ago I was looking at very speakers hoping to set up a system which I didn't at that time, and the only speakers that gave me a tune that I liked of the ones I was able to audition were the Monitor Audio Gold Reference, bookshelf to three-way floor standing--the gold now have gone through several versions since, but I think they may have had more warmth back then, I'm not sure. And I compare them to search speakers as Paradigm, B&W, Martin Logan, Polk, Veritas, and I think others, but not necessarily side-by-side, but I wasn't able to addition revel or focal, not to mention the more esoteric speakers that may come later like Aeria, Harbeth, and Spender. There are no monitor gold or platinum dealers near me the closest is 68 miles. but I imagine the Monitor Audio Gold or Platinum today are similar to the revel and Focal. There is another reviewer that raved about the Revel PerformaBe F 228e, which he said was very linear but if I recall there might've been a slight reduction in the mid range, was that his favorite speaker at 5000 which also was very linear and the best speaker at that price ranger may be higher, but then it turned out to have slight recesses in the mid range. And a few months before his favorite speaker which I think is still his favorite, is a $29,000 KEF. Although he gives honest reviews, you just can't go by their claim of what's the best, in my opinion, because they keep changing what is their favorite or the best every month or two. One limiting factor might be my receiver which is a Yamaha R-N2000A network receiver. By all refuses it's a very good amplifier but it puts out 145 W into 4 ohms and 90 W into 8 ohms, increased by bi-wiring. That is in the range of most of the speakers but usually in the bottom part of the range, I don't need to play them that loudly for the music I listen to. That's one advantage for the Klipsch that it's more compatible with their power requirements. I'm just a little afraid that I might find the sound too unrefined. The thing is with the Monitor Audio Gold, they had a richness to the vocal quality, which even their Silver line didn't have. And all the others were very clear, but the sound was too thin for the vocals and they had no presences or didn't stand out. That's what what I want to avoid.

@@fredbloggs6080 To my ear, the Klipsch heritage line though impressive and enjoyed are not a refined sound. The Revel are reported by some as being very accurate with little or no coloration. I have heard a Monitor Audio in a very long time so I do not recall them as having a refined sound. Only a typical British, polite bass response. I did spend time with the Spendor 9.2 and 7.2. Pretty expensive, but I did like them. They are a band pass design though so like the Klipsch you want to make sure you like what you are hearing. Recent models of Klipsch have to my ear a better voicing than the stuff of the 80's and 90's. Today they are not nearly as shouty and chesty as their elder sibling were in the day. Another option that may be in your budget is a Vandersteen 2ce or Aerial Acoustics 6T another brand to consider is Sonus Faber and B&W. My recommendation is take your time and do not rush your decision. If there are no dealers handling some of these products in your neck of the woods. Take an audio vacation to the big city and spend a couple days auditioning. I live in the boonies and for me to listen to Focal is a 12 hour drive. So I think I get it. Doing an in-home audition is next to impossible for me. Albeit, the dealer I keep going back to did loan me an amp for an in-home audition without leaving a deposit. Speakers are bit harder to deal with though.

Odd, we did not do that, we wonder if the YT AI goofed. We appreciate you watching and sharing.

Focal has always used high quality cross over components. We should have mentioned that, thanks for sharing.

We appreciate you sharing, speakers certainly are personal taste.
