The Focal Chorus 807V is a premium 2-way bass-reflex stand-mounted loudspeaker manufactured in France by Focal in the late 2000s to early 2010s. A relatively large compact monitor, it uses Focal’s own 180 mm Polyglass woofer and 25 mm inverted-dome TNV tweeter in a front-ported V-shaped cabinet.
These pre-owned speakers are in excellent condition in black gloss finish, supplied with both grilles. No other accessories or original packaging are included.
Highly revealing, dynamic and punchy, the Focal Chorus 807V offers an extended, detailed high end that rewards careful matching with smooth amplification; these are ideal for enthusiasts seeking quality French engineering at a competitive price.

Why Choose the Focal Chorus 807V Bookshelf Speakers?
The Chorus 807V combine Focal’s signature driver technology with a rigid, non-parallel cabinet to deliver energetic, detailed performance from a stand-mount format.
• Revealing High Frequencies: Inverted aluminium/magnesium dome tweeter extends smoothly to 28 kHz with wide dispersion.
• Punchy, Articulated Bass: 180 mm Polyglass driver and rear bass-reflex port produce lively low-end impact.
• Low Cabinet Colouration: V-shaped enclosure with non-parallel walls reduces internal resonances.
• Easy to Drive: 92 dB sensitivity and 25–175 W recommended power suit a broad range of electronics.
• Authentic Focal Character: Designed and built in France with drivers of Focal’s own design and production.
Audition the Focal Chorus 807V at our Lane Cove showroom to hear its dynamic, revealing presentation in a well-matched system.
With a frequency response of 50 Hz to 28 kHz and a low-frequency point of 41 Hz, the Chorus 807V delivers more scale than many compact monitors.
The inverted-dome tweeter’s reduced moving mass and the Polyglass cone’s combination of rigidity and damping produce a sound that is immediate, detailed and musically engaging.
The front-ported V-shaped cabinet helps control standing waves while supporting the speaker’s punchy, rock-ready character.
Proper stand height and amplifier matching bring out the 807V at its best; with clear imaging, energetic dynamics and a high-end that is extended yet rewarding when partnered with smooth electronics.

At A$1,000, this sits around the original A$1,600-ish new-pair level once you account for inflation and import-market variability, so as a used buy it’s only fair rather than a standout bargain. The model was well reviewed at launch and regarded as strong value, but that means the price needs to reflect condition and whether any stands or packaging are included.
What makes it worth a look is the lively, revealing Focal presentation: big, clean midrange, very good treble extension, and enough efficiency to sound open with modest power. If the cabinets are tidy and the drivers are original, it’s a sensible purchase for someone who likes a forward, detailed sound. At this price, missing accessories or obvious wear would matter, but a clean set is still a decent buy.
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.
