MGR/Czar « Focal CMS65 »
Published on 10/29/10 at 15:00The focal cms65 looks plain but are far from plain monitors.
I bought mine from sweetwater brand new for $1,000 each. If your going to be mixing you need serious monitors. These are the best I've found in the $2k range
Before I purchased these I was looking at dyn audio. All the great things I heard about Focal swayed me into getting these and I'm glad I did. These monitors sound really, really good. I love the shelving options on the back.
FYI you will need to remove the grills from the monitors and insert the phase plugs. I didn't and was disappointed when I first played these monitors. Then I noticed some pics of the monitors online had the grills removed and I read on another review that they should be removed.
After removing the grills and inserting the phase plugs I was blown away. I see myself keeping these monitors for a long time.
The back of the cms65 has plenty EQ shelving options on the back, however they are hard to switch
Focal has a really good rep when it comes to monitors and these don't disappoint
Excellent flat non fatiguing monitors. These monitors really sound great. I'm very happy with this purchase
