To say I was impressed would be an understatement. Very very good tone, musicality and resolution. I've said this before about metal tweeters, but, when done right, they are not too bright and can delivery a very rewarding experience.

Congratulations on your speakers. I know when the time comes for my new speakers, I will look hard at Focal, among others I so readily dismissed before.
I listened to the Dynaudio C4 which you indicate are your current speakers.
I LOVE these speakers.
I wouls have gone with Dynaudio but I have a local Focal dealer and the Focal's met my needs.
