Angeboten wird „Sopra 3“ von Focal als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „Standlautsprecher“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 9647705225 endet am 23.06.2026 um 18:36 Uhr.
The Focal Sopra No3 is a flagship three-way floorstanding known for its dynamic punch, space-efficient depth, and harmonic richness thanks to pure Beryllium tweeters and “W” cone woofers. This €15,970 asking price is a strong deal for a used pair in EUR condition, sitting well below the median of €16,371 and just under the 75th percentile of €17,720 from seven recent comparable EUR listings. It’s notably below the 25th percentile threshold of €10,977 only if you’re comparing to outlier lows, but relative to the median, this is a clear buying opportunity.
What makes this worth chasing is the Sopra No3’s rare ability to deliver high-end resolution without bloating room requirements, paired with Focal’s legendary time-coherent design. At this price, you’re getting near-new condition performance from a model that still commands €12,999–€13,999 each new in USD (roughly €11,800–€12,800 EUR each). If the listing includes original crates, stands, or is from an original owner with minimal use, the upside is even greater—this is a genuine bargain for a cult-loved speaker that rarely dips below €16k used.

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.
