Complete with original packaging and all accessories. Mint condition, stunning white gloss front baffle.
This is a strong deal: at £26,990, it sits just below the £27,014 25th percentile of the recent comparable set and under the £27,134 median, so it’s priced a touch better than the market rather than merely in line with it. Given the 75th percentile is £32,851, there’s no sense of ambition here; it looks like a properly competitive ask for a serious pair of floorstanders.
That makes it appealing because this model is regarded as a top-tier Focal statement speaker, with the kind of scale, dynamics, and grip that can make a big room feel effortless when it’s set up right. Excellent condition matters here: if the drivers, EM motor system, and cabinet finish are genuinely clean, this is the sort of listing that rewards a buyer who already knows they want reference-level performance and would rather buy well than chase a cheaper but compromised example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Focal traces its roots to 1979 in Saint-Étienne, France, where engineer and hi-fi enthusiast Jacques Mahul founded the company in a small workshop within his father's precision engineering firm. Initially operating as JMlab, it began crafting bespoke speaker drivers, with early models like the DB13 earning acclaim for their compact yet dynamic bass performance. This heritage of acoustic innovation and French craftsmanship propelled Focal's evolution, marked by pivotal 1990s expansions under Gérard Chrétien's leadership, yielding iconic references such as the Vega and Grande Utopia loudspeakers that redefined audiophile standards.
The brand's core focus remains high-fidelity loudspeakers, where it excels through in-house driver design featuring breakthroughs like inverted-dome tweeters, Polyglass cones, flax diaphragms, and beryllium tweeters in its Utopia line. Focal has diversified into professional studio monitors, premium headphones, car audio systems, and select accessories, all emphasizing noble materials and meticulous engineering. While not delving into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, or cables, its speaker-centric portfolio spans home, mobile, and pro applications with unwavering commitment to purity of sound.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Focal commands respect as a world leader among discerning hi-fi buyers for its benchmark performance, international awards, and "Made in France" prestige. No longer a niche boutique, it blends heritage appeal with cutting-edge technology, attracting serious audiophiles who prioritize transparency, dynamics, and emotional depth over mass-market compromises.
