I have the altos as well, and love them. I use mine with the matching focal sub. It is a very nice sub, but I do not use it when playing music as I have not been able to integrate it for stereo playback to my liking. I have tried various placements, phase, crossover and level adjustments but cannot get it to sound natural on music.

I am very happy with it on movies though!
