Last year I ended buying the Focal 705V as discussed in this thread:
http://www.whathifi.com/forum/hi-fi/focal-705v-vs-q-acoustics-2020i-vs-boston-25-vs-diamond-101
The sound is much better compared to what it was with Diamond 10.1. Probably I should just sit and enjoy the music. Well, the thing is - I like the looks of the new version much better than the one I own. In addition Focal claims that the new tweeter employed in the new version has much lower distortion than the old one resulting in a significantly better sound. My recent brief audition of the 705 gave me the impression that it may be a bit too bright or brighter than the 705V.
I vould really appreciate any input about the sound of the new version vs the old or about the sound of 705 from someone who owns it. Unfortunately I will not be in a position to listen to the 705 in my room on my system since the dealer is not offering to loan the speakers.
Thanks!
