Hi,
I have a problem with finding an amp for my Focus 110 and I wonder someone can give me some advice? My listening room is (joined kitchen and living room/listening room) which measures 3.8m x 9m, although I listen in area 3.8m x 4.5m, which is half of the room. Focus is on the longer wall.
Do you think I would be able to run my focus 110 successfully with integrated or power/pre combination? Are there any other recommendations in £500-£1000 range?
How about tubes for Focus 110?
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Cheers |

And yes, I listen mostly to classical and jazz, vocal music too. I like lively, fast sound, not boomy bass, but warm sound with sweet highs. (if that is all possible in Hi-Fi)  |

rob, what electrics were used when you auditioned the 110's and liked them enough to buy them? |

Hi,
I have auditioned at the dealers on some expensive Accuphase stuff. I was not able to listen at home as I was exchanging for Dynaudio x12.
I guess the accuphase is out of reach, my budget is around £700, but the less is better 
I am looking for good synergy between the Focus 110 and new amp.
Thanks |

Well, a boomy bass can be had from the 110's(in limited quantity) if they are placed in a corner, but this is the domain or the 140, mostly.
The 110, on solid stands, will enjoy some side reinforcement, tyvm, 2 feet or less, depending on your room.
Have you had a look at your room acoustics at all? |

Well, my room is not the best in the terms of boomy bass, but I heard few good systems(combinations) in the same room without boomy bass.
Unfortunately I am not able to buy those.
I think the bigger part of the boomy bass problem lies within the components and cables. |
