  kyl30's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  I use them in config 2.1 (with sub6) for listening and mixing mainly. My choice was motivated by technology made in Focal (including Berylium tweeter is just wonderful).
  
  The finish of these speakers is close to perfection! It's beautiful :-)

  Sounds

  What a pleasure!
  
  Everything is ... music is revealed simply, without artifice.
  
  
  
  It is better to treat the rest of his equipment to get the max (acoustic convertos ...)

  Overall Opinion

  I have for over a year now and I'm tired ...
  
  
  
  The only complaint that I find them, is that they do not really down, but the bottom is issued is very accurate, if not generous bandwidth.
  
  For me, the problem was solved with the purchase of sub6 (also excellent) ... And then it purrs!
  
  
  
  The French know how to make pregnant! I understand why and know-how to sell the 4 corners of the world ...

  tonton erno's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " A poem"

  Characteristics

  Speakers and impeccable craftsmanship to me beyond anything I've tried in this price range.

  Sounds

  Precise, fine, plump, supple, nervous, full of silk and dynamic. Music. That is the word I was looking for. Balanced spectrum. You can hear the wood but also metal. And the friction of the second violin shirt (but there is not an image). Powerful and largely sufficient for 20 m2. Absolutely not tiring. 3D stereo image. The left, right, middle, and if you listen closer to the top and bottom or the back (when we love, we add).

  Overall Opinion

  I hesitated with Adam S1X, but the model I tried spitting at an hour (a demo model). It cooled me ... They are the same. Compared with my Prodipe 8 (from when I was a virgin) is the day and night. I also worked with the FAR, Adam, Dynaudio and Mackie. The solo me are more expensive, however they are cheaper. It is a long-term investment. Time will tell.

  ferdji's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " NOTICE"

  Characteristics

  I wanted a neutral sound, not flattering.
  
  I use the output of my mixer.

  Sounds

  Very good record. I think if one goes through a soft, a good clock is useful.

  Overall Opinion

  I've had at least 4 years.
  
  Before I had Tanoy passive (super audio) then yamaha MSP5 (need love).

  wild horses's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " Monitoring"

  Characteristics

  Compact speakers, amplified and French!!
  
  Usage: Music Recording and Mixing Music and a bit of mastering.
  
  Not very expensive.
  
  
  
  As good as a pair of Genelec, (even better but this is only my opinion) and much less expensive

  Sounds

  The curve is really neutral, they are pregnant straight, no impression rajoutent what "things". if you can really trust, even in a less than optimal. At registration, you really hear the instruments, and mix, you can really sculpt without surprises.

  Overall Opinion

  Very good pair of speakers, if I had to buy, I will not hesitate to buy this model.
  
  
  
  I do work on Genelec, K & H ... And I can say that The Focal did not blush at the comparison. Superb

  lm's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " balanced reasonably priced"

  Characteristics

  The price / quality ratio is excellent
  
  
  
  Use for mixing in the studio

  Sounds

  The enclosure is one of the most balanced in this price range
  
  
  
  The stereo image is very correct
  
  
  
  The only fault I can do is not go lower, but for an HP 6 ", 40Hz is already very good.

  Overall Opinion

  In fact I use since 2007, but I bought mine in 2009.
  
  
  
  I also used for years NS10 and Genelec 1031 which makes me appreciate even more the Focals.
  
  
  
  I will ever be the same choice without a doubt. The enclosure

  hairy pattern's review ( translated ) Improve this translation " foot"

  Characteristics

  Excuse me but since I have them I am less on audio to discuss, nothing to say about these speakers who have not packing m at first by their looks, then J stays up on more design models, and studies being designer not occupation by infimme OUTLET ON THE Labour, but the surprise struts size just by the fact that the mix on these Averre are tapping rules on property of other systems, c is that I have become aware of these earphone, the sound is never pleasant Agresso and does not lie in the frequencies that they occupy a marvel, I have just rule something para back and c is that of happiness ... I've bought small then, I have a clear preference for Solo6 Be but we can go there with eyes closed, thank you thank you focal France for a time remain chauvinists
  
  piratamicalement

  Sounds

  very good stereo image, even surprising to my taste, respect for the dynamics of the party also, very specifically, C is remarcable .... no kitsch in the frequency, c is the luxury

  Overall Opinion

  several years, and I tell myself not Quite to spend a bulk of the same brand, so I'm happy with, I have had any other tapping cheaper, but ruin the precision, the same price with competition from the north, who would have been less clean ... m demo they have is cheaper, and then put aside two small failures beginning she no longer move, service after sale of thunder, repair in the same week, compared to the other person is more ... j arrested pacifiers, because with focal c is the sound of honey for the ears and feet hurt for our patients ... I would do it twice a choice that is flawless, besides m they have helped to love the wood

  matgonet's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  CHARACTERISTICS See below. Everything is subjective, but they are trs lgantes and the finish is irrprochable.

  Sounds

  I just got. L also is something of TRS staff but the sound is simply thundering, the spectrum is really bluffing stro. It redcouvre his mix, his cds. A little lightweight for me missing the bottom, even after a break-PERIOD never t as useful as this MODEL.

  Overall Opinion

  Happiness. The size / price / quality / music is absolutely irrprochable.

  rafbeyonddriven's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  I chose these speakers because Focal is not a manufacturer but an assembler. The Focal sound is cool, it's a Socit who has experience.
  
  I wanted to powered speakers of good quality, reasonably powerful, and looking for an DEFINITIONS prcises the top of the spectrum.
  
  I use them to prprod of the house, with Pro Tools. My prods then go into the studio to be mixes on another System. This requires that the purchase cost is cohrente.
  
  The Solo 6 are used for the post prod (pub, doc, IPK) as well as to prod the music (rock for the majority

  Sounds

  Without going into technical dtails (card manufacturer for details), the speaker is a bit of a favorite ear ... I've had it with those.
  
  Defines the treble, the bass mdiums without agressivit prcises round.
  
  The Stereo is perfect. The speakers, however, require a certain distance.
  
  This pair costs a perfect dynamic. I rediscovered a lot of records, and note the Black Album Metallica, which rvle be a gold mine for testing dtails costs.

  Overall Opinion

  A year and a half of use, no ppin.
  
  Particularity that j'apprcie? PERFECT SOUND!
  
  I test BM6 BM15 A A, Genelec 1031, TANNOY REVEAL, nothing is above the Focal for a really reasonable price.
  
  I would do without this choice hsiter one second, and I used the control group with his pals ing to have a lower selling price, MDIT!

  Vicks's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  - What characteristics have motivated your choice?
  
  
  
  I was looking for good speakers for around 1400-1500 euros a pair, I was hooked by the features described on the focal site (beryllium, manufacturing quality apparent serious approach ...). All that has emerged during the comparative listening in the store, I took the time.
  
  
  
  - For what purpose?
  
  
  
  Editing / mixing / recording classical music (pro) home studio (amateur) home listening.
  
  
  
  - What amp / What configuration? ...
  
  
  
  RME fireface800 / Presonus Central Station
  
  For the price, it's serious.

  Sounds

  - The frequency curve is sufficiently neutral?
  
  
  
  No color for me, unlike Dynaudio, Genelec ... I'm on my mixes, no surprises. Very reliable.
  
  
  
  - The stereo image is good?
  
  
  
  Simply stunning. of "holosonie!" But the acoustics of my listening place is not optimized.
  
  
  
  - The sound is clear and precise on the spectrum?
  
  
  
  the highs are great precision and accuracy. Medium idem. the bass is deep and clear, the event in front is very apreciation. I would like to hear in a room bigger and better treated than my apartment ... but it's very good and very reliable.
  
  I think the twin-saving yet, but the price difference is important. I'll take a box when I'm rich.
  
  
  
  - The dynamics are respected? ...
  
  
  
  Dynamic amazing, nothing else to say. Everything is connected: it's serious, reliable.

  Overall Opinion

  - How long have you use it?
  
  
  
  since January 2007, four months then.
  
  
  
  - What is so special that you like most and least?
  
  
  
  the tradeoff between precision / accuracy perfect, and listening comfort. No fatigue.
  
  
  
  - Have you tried many other models before buying it?
  
  
  
  Genelec 8040 (I do not like very flattering), Dynaudio 5a and 6a (I have a problem with the bottom of Dynaudio medium, which are also great precision also), Adam (very well too, but the famous Acute tape me tired. feeling artificial).
  
  I have compared at length and in several times for me Solo6 have emerged clearly. I have not been able to compare with BM6A MK2.
  
  
  
  - How would you rate the quality / price?
  
  
  
  At the top. design, materials, quality sound for 1500 euros.
  
  
  
  - With experience, you do again this choice? ...
  
  
  
  Without a doubt, except BM6A MK2 outputs that were not ... But I am quite overwhelmed by this major investment, in every sense of the word.

  Ozzi's review ( translated ) Improve this translation

  Characteristics

  29/01/2006-D the first tribute to a "saturax" from below. It's late and I have already pointed at the BM6A, but I do it again this message and complete in full in the coming days. I, we with my "crew" have nabbed a pair today and I'm trying to break in ... But what are BEAUTIFUL! + sound in you two jewels! well I'll keep you in suspense because I myself am exited by the happiness that comes from this famous brand of live li ... St.Etienne wrinkles!)
  
  
  
  end of May 2006 - update
  
  
  
  So I come back after a number of months and I break me! So to be explicit choice is made based on the quality / budget of course. And especially after you farted a new pair of BM6A (unfortunately for Dynaudio was at the time of Muhammad cartoons in Denmark!). And well in our misfortune (my crew) was a good, since we are talking Focal came out. And since I knew the HPs of this brand and quality exeptionnelle recent patents in this area, it was directly heated to SOLO6be!
  
  
  
  The use of close listening, composition of electronic music, prod, and mastering.
  
  with a config based on a ASUSp4-3.6GHz, taskam US428, FL6 producer studio full (purchased), wave lab, and the plethora of plugs ...
  
  
  
  And that's it in stores soon!

  Sounds

  In running ... YUM!
  
  
  
  Several months later. In lint! No, it's true!
  
  Jokes aside:
  
  1-I would say the curve is transparent, for the record there are those who promote neutrality> BM6A above the Genelec who supposedly are too FLATEUSES. Well I who bumps on the BM6A I can be said of SOLO6be compared to BM6A I was so disturbed by exeptionnel made of low, mid and treble. And God knows if I mix well, but I still took a blow after BM6A (for the member price).
  
  2-Another comparison on the stereo with BM6A like everyone else I cracked on the stage, and then informed me SOLO6be on another reality: it is only right and left side there is also the we hear you hold the property: in the middle. And that's crying in the sound image focal lengths!
  
  3 - Dynamic? 150w/basse for SOLO6be - 100w/basse for BM6A with a radical difference in the cutoff frequency of ~ 1 kHz lower for FOCAL tweeter and a broader spectrum. The WOFF is less loaded medium, it is more warning, no nothing radiators and heaters, an alluvial! And a treat!

  Overall Opinion

  , 5:32 '28 "... See you soon!
  
  
  
  Update:
  
  
  
  For five months, so it's kamasutra!
  
  Most:
  
  1-L'Evente laminar front does not bleed, ever. It is very functional and discreet, it does not disturb the wave propagation.
  
  The 2-HPs impeccable design.
  
  3-This speaker is really the fruit of love of high-end sound for the price while we are often thrown in the faces of models with features honorably but remains constrained by their real performences on terrain.Des products s'essouflent that and make us regret not having been able to over € 2,000, for example.
  
  
  
  Of course I go home FOCAL, too small to last SIEL SOLO6be were proudly displayed at the stand no less prestigious PRO TOOLS. But when I see the line above is Alice in Wonderland ...
  
  
  
  HELLO!
